Though no longer a pharmacist, I remain a Fellow & look forward to seeing this new era for pharmacy leadership. I have voted in the College elections - if you have the chance to vote please use it.

I am no lawyer but sounds like an assault - threatening noise, feeling of danger. Apt quote below?

Proverbs …. Anyone who would trick someone and then say, "I was only joking" is like a fool who shoots flaming arrows into the air and accidentally kills someone.

The TV? Or book? Margaret Attwood is a great. Some dark stuff but such good reads.

Well I just tried β€˜don’t paint around the badger’ … very poor AI response about β€˜beating around the bush’ when it is clearly about not dealing with a problem properly (as in line marking) 🀣

Oh dear indeed… though a massive sale of assets, low interest rate loans or a magic money tree might do it?

O, I see England have 20 points so even a draw would see them home.

By β€˜it’ I mean prevent an England championship.

I think a 4 try apiece draw would do it!

Of course leadership can come from each & each can help raise quality.

Ridiculously oversimplified but….

Royal College gets us to reach for the stars;

Union & trade body gets us paid like stars;

Regulator checks all the stars twinkle sufficiently.
