Replying to @baxiboilers
@baxiboilers No heating or hot water for a week. Living with partner and child. Baxi engineer charged an eye-watering almost £500 pounds, but failed to reinstate heat. Appreciate that you do social media rather than fixing boilers, but would really appreciate any help

Still no interest from @LexusUK or @LexusBirmingham to address the issue of repeated thefts of our RX. Installing additional security at our own cost. Off the road for 8 weeks after second theft-not sure how long it will last on the driveway. a luxury brand of @ToyotaUK ??

Replying to @LexusUK
@LexusUK what are your plans regarding the frequent thefts of the RX? Ours was stolen twice within a week. Dealership unable to advise on any security measures-all up to us. Awful service. In Canada 1 in 6 of these cars are being stolen..

Excellent discussion by our fellow @IamSlalwani .24% of 102 infants who had tracheostomy for ‘upper airway issues’ ultimately needed long term ventilation due to comorbidities like prematurity, neurogenetic disorders @IsobelMB @BWC_NHS #ERSCongress

Incredible video. Afghan dad jokingly says school is only for boys. Watch his remarkable daughter - who can’t be more than 5 or 6 years old - respond with these arguments. Afghan girls have been denied access to schools and universities. This little girl's courage represents the collective voice of countless Afghan girls who yearn for equal educational opportunities. As an advocate for girls' education the father's teasing is simply to highlight an important message: that the Taliban - another backward regime - are harming the people of his country. It’s time the world is done with them. Ditto the “Islamic” Republic in Iran #regime

24/7 consultant presence at the front door in our trust has produced a huge amount of efficiency. The flow is better and the morning team have much fewer waiting to be seen. Lesson learnt from strike nights: 24/7 decision making consultant presence is worth investing in.

So glad to have been able to listen to that talk.

Prof Van Tam gave a talk to our British Thoracic Society. I’ve never seen a standing ovation at conference like it, with many openly tearful. It was profoundly moving for the respiratory community after last 3 years to be seen & thanked. Lots of unprocessed trauma still.

Really enjoyed the latest @medicalwomenuk pod cast-fascinating interview with @RCPCHPresident. Treated myself to a rare solo coffee while listening-highly recommended and added to my @RCPCHtweets CPD diary. Win win! Thanks @DrNuthana -looking forward to the rest of season 2

Dr Yifan Liang sharing her PPC NIV decision tool with everyone, because everyone from the West Midlands is the best. Again, not at all biased. #RCPCH22
