Madam, – The car park of the hospital where I am based remains in a perilous state due to impacted snow and ice. The maintenance department in the hospital says it does not have the equipment to render the car park ice-free and safe, the local council insists it is not their job to do so.
Meanwhile, inside the hospital, staff are working flat out (at least those who escaped the car park unscathed are) to minister to those unfortunates who fell victim to the Arctic weather and its consequences. Work that one out.
