New NHS Shock: Man Waits 5,000 Years For Scan

A man finally recieved a CT scan today after waiting in bandages for 5,000 years.  A member of his family complained:  "they said we were going to be treated like royalty - but we are the ones that have been doing the waiting.  The same thing happened to my Mummy".

In Denial

Responding, a spokesman for the Luxor NHS Trust said: "the fact that we are funded by one of Gordon Brown's complicated PFI arrangements has nothing to do with this regrettable delay.  It's not a pyramid scheme, you know."

Dodgy Giza

He went on: "the family claim he caught MRSA, but we say it was his lifestyle that did for him.  He was on 40 Camels a day."

When asked what he thought had caused the death the A&E consultant at St George's said "Sore cough, I guess."

Cleopatra had contaminated her needle with the disease she'd contracted from the local Dub DJ, Artie Fax.

when eventually offered the scan he said "I'm a bit tied up at the moment."!

A doctor commented - "No Hieroglyph Specialist" was available.

During the scan it was ascertained that the 'mummy' was indeed a mummy.

The scanner has since been renamed the Womb Radar. (Tomb Rader)
