Bookworm, ballet fan, likes a good detective story. Now with the NHS. All views my own. Goodreads and NetGalley user.
Years ago a colleague strapped a full wardrobe to her car roof (I have no idea how she got it up there). It came open on a busy road, clothes flying everywhere…

Feel better now? 😂

I book in several ingrown infected toenails to our urgent treatment centre. Many have struggled to get a GP appt, or have tried pharmacies, only to be told in both places to go to UTC… So then they do as they’re told, naturally.

I’ve done The Big Give for years now, and this year introduced Mum to it too!

Crikey, you’d need a part time job just to pay for nibbling gifts!

These are awesome! I’ve reposted, and shared with a librarian friend who I think would like them. I’ll look to put my own order in once I narrow it down from “allllllll of them” 🤣

To balance, I did buy books a few times recently in my local indie & also recommended it to a patient at work who had recently moved to the town (they seemed quite excited to know there was one). I’m part time NHS, so watch the £££ more now and I’ll end up spending some of my savings at the indie!

I’ve heard of one of those! (This reflects badly on me, not you!). It was the Cocteau Twins - though I couldn’t tell you why or where I’d heard of them…

You’d think managers would know that unhappy or unsupported staff perform less well. And/or leave. Therefore keeping staff happy and supported means better work and less turnover. I’ve never managed, but this seems like the basic fundamentals, no?

How will they prove you have used it though?

And done again! I have all of the others I think, but yours is the only one I’ve read so far.

Done!

I’m so sorry to hear that… a peaceful nap sounds an excellent way to go, when the time comes ❤️
