   | Seasonal Humour!!Prince Charles is being shown around a hospital. Towards the end of his visit, he is shown into a ward with a number of people with no obvious signs of injury. He goes to greet the first patient and the chap replies: "Fair fa' your honest sonsie face, Great chieftain o the puddin'-race! Aboon them a' ye tak your place, Painch, tripe, or thairm: Weel are ye wordy of a grace As lang 's my arm." Prince Charles, being somewhat confused, grins and moves on to the next patient and greets him. He replies: "Some hae meat, and canna eat, And some wad eat that want it; But we hae meat and we can eat, And sae the Lord be thankit." The third starts rattling off as follows: "Wee sleekit, cow'rin, tim'rous beastie, 0, what a panic's in thy breastie! Thou need na start awa sae hasty, Wi bickering brattle! I wad be laith to rin an chase thee, Wi murdering pattle!" Prince Charles turns to the doctor accompanying him and asks what sort of ward this is. A mental ward? "No," replies the doctor. "It's a Burns Unit."

Most memorable was the freehand drawing of a perfect circle on the wall, said to be the sign of madness IIRC.
