Ard and hairs all over her chest if been eating Yorkshire pudds since 2 . Very versatile thinks Yorkshire pudds ex wife introduced me into eating them as a dessert with jam . Aye! That's reet! Normal round these parts! :shock: :shock: Mind we only 'ave one meal a week so we 'ave to make most of it....

Weary, weary, weary! I've spoken to two retired GPs this week who are our patients and were complaining -one about the inability to get through on the phone and the other to say that we should have the windows open in reception to encourage airflow. The first one and I became 'best friends' during t...

Hi Andy I'm so very sorry to hear about your son. I know diabetes is not the worst diagnosis you can have but it's pretty devastating in one so young. He will need a grieving period to get his head around it but no doubt with the resilience of the young he will come out the other side and realise it...

And amongst all the general madness last week we had a call from a patient asking for medication. The patient is a man but the caller was evidently a woman trying to put on a deeper voice :shock: :shock: . The patient has had to ask his pharmacy to only give his prescriptions to him because his sist...

Could have been worse you could have been bending over to pick up a paper clip :shock: :shock: ( I deleted what I was going to say incase we have any younger readers ).. So Alan is a swinger :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :lol: :lol: And yes Alan (whose blog this is) may well be a swinger....

So my week back at work after a week off. And WHAT a week! It was just manic. Mainly from the sheer volume of work created by COVID and my week off (240 emails which I still haven't got through a week later). But also from trying to deal with patients who are unhappy about not being able to get thro...

Looks like we are heading for further restrictions. They are talking about shutting pubs from Wednesday. To be fair the restrictions have minimal impact on Alan and me but I can understand the youngsters getting really twitched and fed up with them. I am lucky that I am a key worker so have worked t...

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Jane will surely remember if she ever attends a seance to say hi to Frank from Paul :roll: :roll: . No good asking him for any drugs as Jane thinks it would be hard to transport from the afterlife. Jane had an Uncle Frank but he died, just like Paul's Frank. Jane is glad she'...

Well miraculously Alan (whose blog this is) has recovered from his deadly virus :roll: :roll: . This was as a direct result of Jane suggesting she did a curry for today's Sunday lunch if Alan wasn't well enough to do a proper roast. Alan went into panic mode :shock: :shock: . Curry for Sunday lunch?...

And that's part of the problem Marilyn! Some people just aren't great on the phone. The doctors also have to rely on the patient telling them everything and just as you say, people forget things that the GP may be able to see if they were sitting in front of them. There has been an acknowledgement i...

Jane a good girl :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: It has been known :shock: :shock: . Jane can't remember when but there must have been at least one occasion ....... Okay. Maybe not :oops: :oops: . So today Jane is going to kill Alan (whose blog this is) slowly and painfully by hitting him...

Oh serious deep sigh! Stockton is not in 'special measures' due to the virus but all the towns around us are. So in preparation, I suspect, of the inevitable, the supermarkets today have introduced queueing outside again :( . I KNOW it's not the end of the world and my personal mantra if you are ups...
