Tuesday's Quote of the Day

09:26 UK time, Tuesday, 25 March 2008

'We just hope people understand that this is not a place for a horse" - Spokeswoman for Wilcox Memorial Hospital in Hawaii, after a visitor brought in a patient's horse to cheer him up.

horsehospital.gifThe visitor and his equine companion were only stopped as they disembarked from the elevator on the third floor, having made it through the main entrance as reception staff had gone home for the night.

While the animal wasn't allowed onto the ward to visit his owner, the patient was brought out to see his favourite pet... only for it to turn out that the well-meaning (and intoxicated) relative had brought in the wrong horse.
