I am sure it is a different RBH study, but just had one of my BE members dropped out from a study after walking down Oxford Street traffic etc etc and other tests to be told he was'nt well enough and the promised remuneration withdrawn - I will investigate and advise!

The royal Brompton is huge! The staff is great. There's some sort of cafeteria in the big entrance hall, so you can get a drink and sandwiches (I think it's got odd opening hours!).

It will be interesting. enjoy it!
