Dear darling Twitteroos, if you’re thinking ‘Oh God, everyone around me is so big and shiny and jolly and they’re surrounded by 250 friends tonight and I’m already in my pjs”, can I reassure you that probably the rest of their life is shit?

One of my least favourite things in the NHS is people cc'ing in increasingly senior people when they don't get the response they want. You can tag in [email protected] my friend but it's still going to be a no.

Your regular reminder not to comment unsolicited on anybody else’s weight loss* (or gain tbh) *unless you are ABSOLUTELY *certain* it’s both deliberate and part of a positive thing for them

Thoughts - simulation training is not for everyone. There are some folk who are clearly traumatised by the experience. Do we see simulation as the panacea? Or should we start to accept that it doesn’t suit everyone? In some instances can actually be harmful?

Medical students have helped with>700 shifts on our AMU at peak busy periods (evenings and weekends) in 2022. Made a massive difference to flow and they got paid. Win win @acutemedicine
An innovative programme which sees medical students carry out paid shifts in Ninewells Hospital has proved a great success, with benefits for patients, staff and students tinyurl.com/4ay2pzda

My shower gel is £1 but my washing up liquid is £2. Why am I spending twice as much to clean my plates as I am to clean myself? We're both covered in the same pasta sauce.

Me and three mates went to the cinema to watch The Perfect Storm. At the kiosk, I asked for, "One large cockporn please". My mates were absolutely creased up laughing. It was one of the funniest and mortifying things that ever happened to me.

So sweet. A lady on the 22:40 to Alicante has just had such a surprise. She sat down and her son walked out the cockpit, in full pilot’s uniform. To say she was shocked was an understatement. Mainly because he’s a bricklayer. Anyway, severe delays while the police arrest him.
