Why pick up a tree when you can saw it out the ground yourself! Never heard of PYO Christmas tree before

I’ve no idea but I don’t think it’s unrelated that a lot of safety critical industries run on three 8hr shifts a day rather than the two 12hr days healthcare loves

All I want for Christmas is a device that when you press ‘print’ some paper magically comes out

Every winter Look North make some junior report do their piece from a bridge over the top of the M62 in the Pennines. Poor chap always looks frozen.

I’ll be honest - my engagement with social media has just nose dived. Deleted twitter but don’t find myself here as much yet.
Might not be a bad thing!

I would be looking at the CV of anyone applying for ophthalmology jobs very carefully. Especially those applicants with long, unexplained career breaks

Gregg Wallace’s lawyer and manager will have had their breakfasts ruined reading his latest comments. Their Harvester breakfasts of course

Certain irony in the pub name given that he was a teetotaller and member of the temperance society!

The problem I see with the assisted dying bill is the six month clause. The NHS waiting list be bc at least eighteen months

I haven’t seen the news about Andrew RT Davies - any link?

Non-controversial opinion

If you decide to use the theatre coffee room for your Teams meeting you can’t then complain about the noise of people making drinks

First day of using the electronic anaesthesia module today. To say I’m terrified would be an understatement!!! Wish me luck

Have you tried prescribing 21% O2 for your RA patients in recovery?

24.11.2024 09:00 — 👍 4    🔁 0    💬 2    📌 0

Not just RA! The recovery staff look at me in horror when I tell them the patient who’s I-Gel I’ve removed before transfer, is wide awake and has sats of 98% doesn’t need a mask clamping on them

I can’t help thinking this should be published in the British Journal of the Bleeding Obvious!!!

I went down to Lyme Regis at half term - hadn’t realised quite what a beautiful part of the world it was

We all know the real reason why John Prescott punched a civilian on the campaign trail - it’s because Nessa broke up with him the day before. That punch was meant for her

A different view from the Chevin! Not as peaceful as you might imagine as I was accompanied by 15 scouts!

I don’t understand how there isn’t more outrage about this. The most vulnerable children in our society being used as a commodity for profit?

Maybe it’s because most are troubled teens rather than cute babies so we’d prefer to ignore them?

Paddington in Peru was very entertaining. Maybe not quite as good as the second - but what could be!

Maybe I’ll prescribe 21% oxygen and see what happens

I have dared to suggest that my ASA1 pt in recovery who’s I-Gel is out and has sats of 99% might not need an oxygen mask

Honestly you’d think I’d suggested mass murder from reaction of the recovery staff

It’s a cost saving exercise by the BBC. Replaced by the cheaper daytime soap ‘Physicians Associates’
