Prince Charles used to play polo. One day he hurt his hand and they took him to the nearest hospital - Queens Medical in Nottingham.

They cordoned off two floors one to keep him on the one below to keep his security staff on. he was there a week.

God knows how many operations were delayed and how much it cost the local health authorities to sort out his polo wound. Princess di came to visit him one day and there squadrons of coppers all over the hospital on full alert.

I'm sure its an okay sport, but it attracts some very dodgy people who piss most of the population off. the polo player in Howards Way turned out to be a villain as well.
