Dad of two, loving husband, nerd. Consultant anaesthetist in the NHS. Opinions not my own but those of our reptilian overlords beamed into my brain. Profile banner recalls that time me and the kids planned on running off to join the Galactic Rebellion.
It says, “2:00 PM THE PRESIDENT makes an announcement.” It doesn’t say Donald Trump.

Whilst we are on the subject of seagulls, I thought I’d share this wonderful @globalportraitproj.bsky.social original. It hangs with pride of place over my desk at home. Watercolour on anaesthetic chart. By far and away the best work of art I will ever own.

New DIY achievement unlocked. As a true professional, I followed the NHS Digital Lock SOP and wrote the code on the window frame next to the gate.

Makes it appear in this list…

Zuck has shut off my dopamine supply at source. Gave an option to have a temporary ban reviewed, when I clicked it I was immediately told the result of my review was that I was banned. Feels like an automated system gone rogue. Genuinely no clue what I could have done otherwise. #FreeTheWhatsAppOne

Thanks for posting, @robjimfleming.bsky.social - I am sad not to be there this year. When the scientific update comes, please can you confirm if epidurals still work and whether 2.5mL remains an acceptable spinal dose? #OAA25ASM

It’s the “Truss Effect” all over again.

JD did a Liz Truss 😬

It’s hard to pinpoint where it all went wrong…
April 20, 2025 at 9:25 AM
Yep, absolutely no confusion here whatsoever.

Bit late, but I liked this one…

Quite literally for the love of God, it’s all there in the book your orange antichrist is peddling. “And who is my neighbour?” I think Jesus quite famously gave a good answer to this, although Speaker Johnson will no doubt consider it too woke to mention. Luke 10:24-37.

Note to our American cousins, this manoeuvre is referred to a “Doing a Truss” and will inevitably be frowned upon by the left-wing blob known as “The Fed” and “Wall Street”. Have your lettuces at the ready, lads…

Have a read of “17 pencils and an FRCA” anaesthetists.org/Portals/0/PD...

Whilst it can definitely feel it, you are not alone. I can guarantee that in your current department you will have consultant colleagues who deferred success on one or more occasion during their exam journey.

Congratulations to my #oneNBT colleagues who, I am reliably informed, have just won the #HSJ “Towards Net Zero” award. Couldn’t be more proud of the work they are doing in building a sustainable organisation.
