Been pretty burnt out recently. Spending a week doing something hopefully a bit restorative, which for me looks like sunsets like this, decent food and a whole lot of nothing.

T-9 days to the next chapter.

If there’s anything to make me feel a little bit less shit after a truly horrendous day at work, it’s the arrival of a #Rule4 mug which pretty much embodies the theme of the day.

Today has included teaching dad (Oncologist, MRCP 1996) the latest iteration of ALS ahead of his course.

Quite why he’s putting himself through this when he last led an arrest before I was born (and when 1st line in MI was Streptokinase) escapes me. But it’s been a good laugh.

Sharing some positive life news for those who aren’t still in the other place.

Nervous, but in an excited way.
