@SW_Help
Do you remember when you used to have a refreshment trolley on your trains?
And then you took it away. And you didn’t reduce the price of our tickets.
I’d really like a drink. And I imagine they probably liked their jobs.
Oh and COVID Restrictions are finished.

Today I travel 3,500 miles across the Atlantic to join 100+ @essexscouts on the North American Adventure 🇺🇸🇨🇦
There’ll be treks, tearful teenagers & torrential rain. But I volunteer because someone took the time to do the same.
Wish me luck! It’s going to be an amazing 3 weeks! – at South West, England
Suddenly very disinterested in that extra leg room seat 😯

Do you think they could tell I liked ED? 😍
But I mean seriously - why is 'No Concern' the greatest achievement one can be told during Foundation Years! It's hardly aspirational!

Thanks guys! It’s always a pleasure to come and teach with your team.
Interesting talk right now by Dr Will Freake on drug overdoses and how to manage them! Pills, potions and peculiar substances!

Isn’t it time @south_railway @SW_Help brought back the refreshments on their main line trains?
‘COVID’ is just not a good enough reason anymore. It’s pure and simple cost cutting. My train ticket hasn’t been reduced for this reduction of service.

I’m not crying, you are 🥲
🧵 (1/3) We LOVE this video capturing the beautiful moment when Eddie was reunited and danced with the #TeamLAS crew that saved his life after suffering a cardiac arrest 👇
What a way to celebrate your 72nd birthday!

Absolutely. As much as I agree in principle that Drs should have empathy - there surely can’t be a fair and reasonable way of testing/benchmarking this outside of actual clinical practice.
No
Because you can’t define empathy easily, let alone test it, and all that will end up happening is universities will adopt a westernised, neurotypical, and exclusionary testing method.

Such an important topic to be discussed, especially to/with undergraduate students.
Nicely done @Dave_Zaple @WessexCCP @HIOWAA
