gulliBell,

I concur re the medical renewals.

One of the last ones I did was a complete joke.

I turned up for an appointment at 3 pm, no doc around, was told he was teaching at the hospital and would arrive shortly.In the meantime they could not weigh me because the scales were buggered,could not ecg me cos the machine was buggered but the nurse could fill out the paperwork whilst I waited.

About 45 mins later my medical certificate is handed to me, I say hang about I have not seen the doc yet ! the nurse replies oh he is in his car outside and we took your paperwork out to him. !!

I check and there is no stamp on it and its valid for 12 months,I am over 60 and tell the nurse it cannot be valid for more than 6 months because of my age, she goes and checks with the turkey who is pretending to be a doctor and he says no its valid for 12 months.!!!

At this point I figure stuff it, as far as I am concerned I will get my usual GP in oz to check me out once a year....if the CAA in PNG cannot be bothered enforcing the rules why should I lose any sleep over it
