No bed for Beatle John!

Is being kept under observation
When he realized his bed was needed for an urgent case

And last night
He was once more happily kicked out alongside Yoko
In the sleeping bag
Yoko who expects her baby next February
Will remain in the hospital for another few days
A Beatles spokesman said
There is a good chance for the baby’s survival
