Hey friends! I've resurrected social media in honour of the PIER network Paediatric emergency conference PREMIER. A lovely run around Winchester this morning followed by some excellent sausages, and we are ready to learn!! #PREMIER

Protip book friends: If you buy second hand books from charity shops you are saving money, the environment and giving to charity all in one go so your partner (or in my case my 4yr old?!) can't tell you off for buying yet more books.

Okay lesson learned. Even an ADHD brain can't read Lyndon Hardy's Riddle of the Seven Realms and watch Loki season two, simultaneously.

Why don't ED departments ever seem to have windows? I feel like the lack of even the sight of daylight over 10 or more hours is very draining.

One would think this is a modern phenomenon, but humans have been packaging poisons in carelessly-labeled beverage-shaped bottles since at least the 1800s.
These bottles, for instance.
Circa 1890s, and just the words “NOT TO BE TAKEN” embossed on them.
Not even painted or anything.

It's not a stereotype, people outside London genuinely walk so much slower?

Today I learned that there are extremely serious people who have made giant guns to fire copper bullets at fuel capsules in order to try to create nuclear fusion in the Oxford countryside and I think that's beautiful.

Had a really useful session with a supervisor just now where amongst other things we explored unknown unknowns, how to identify them and drive self-development. How do you recognise what you don't know and safely expand practice scope and responsibility? Answers on a postcard.

I've currently got 6 different healing small cuts and scrapes on my fingers, from 4 different events in the last week, but today is the day. Today, no injuries!

It's Saturday morning soft play and I don't know what people are complaining about, there's hot chocolates with cream and marshmallows, and you can barely hear the children's screams in the distance

I asked a friend for a personal reference for a rental and they wrote something so beautiful I feel embarrassed showing it to anyone. Feel like this really validates my life goal of surrounding yourself with people who are better than you.

Weird to think that the last time England scored 3 drop goals in a world cup was when I first got interested in rugby. There's just something fantastic about a drop goal!
