Thanks to one of my informants, I have discovered why there are more managers than medical staff at the local NHS hospitals.

Apparently on Fridays, they all play musical chairs and when the music stops, instead of taking a chair away, another one is added.

This must be the only explanation why their numbers continue to grow.

Along with all the new superbugs which are multiplying at the same rate, bring back matron?
