Standing room only at the Endocrine emergencies talks #SfEBES2025

Yet another kick in the teeth for our residents.

This and that agueroooo goal is why football is bloody amazing

Caleb Parry was also in the same class at school as Edward Jenner (father of vaccination) and remained close friends

Massive thanks to the NHS who are doing a great job with dad now off oxygen (best Christmas present ever) and on Parry ward named after Bath Physician Caleb Parry who wrote about Graves’ disease before Graves did (some countries call it Parry’s disease).

Beautiful but haunting

100% agree on this and the same as my post covid experience if you weren’t there I can’t easily talk to you about it

A man holds a sign in the street saying « stop asking for slides a week in advance of a talk »

JAGUAR what on earth have you done!

Your core marker is the loveable rogue. Grace to get away with things, space to carry all the "borrowed" cutlery and oil paintings, and pace to leg it. Your new vibe feels very alien.

Oh yes a classic. Here it is from 2021.

It's the perfect place for like-minded people to gather and reinforce each other.

Rejoin, anyone?
