Hospital forced to cancel ops
A Norfolk hospital has cancelled all routine operations for the rest of the week and says there are no beds available for new patients.

Management at the James Paget Hospital in Gorleston have put the trust on black alert - which means there are no extra beds.

The trust is full to capacity after an influx of emergency cases.

Spokeswoman Elayne Guest said they had 58 emergency admissions on Tuesday with 11 patients still waiting for beds.
