Visiting time and much noise and laughter

1 Clam phones appear very popular in this part of the world. Besides ring tones on most phones hark back to the days when Nokia 3310 (early 1980’s) was the number one selling phone.

2 Being overweight seems to be a problem for patients and visitors alike. Are many of us sleep walking into obesity?

3 At visiting times all conversations are conducted in a loud voice

bias to this observation.
