Pioneers of civilisation - orthopaedic surgeons!

Just learned HS1 (Kent) was EU standard of 180mph, HS2 went for 225+. Speed needs smoother, straighter tracks, more tunnels, more damaging. We need capacity, not velocity.

Seems paradoxical to me that birders/twitchers have such love of and knowledge about nature, and yet their greatest delight is finding a distressed bird so far away from its kin that it will never breed and probably die. Or do these 'mega' rarities often find their way home?

Can we have a memory assessment too, since neither of us recall receiving this questionnaire.

In the NHS working from home is over and above, not instead of. But Mr Musk says both will become obsolete thanks to AI - digital examination of the prostate in two senses!

Piano wars! Wigmore Hall started life as the Bechstein Hall, before WW1 put a stop to German businesses in London. Bechstein is soon opening a studio and concert hall a few doors along. Thrilled to be going to Wigmore again next month!

Junior doc strikes again leading up to election. They say that they will call them off if the PM makes an acceptable commitment. Nothing stopping him now - its a promise he will never have to keep. Do it, Rishi!

Is anyone surprised? No way can the carbon arithmetic balance between spewing out tons CO2 from an aircraft (or anything else) and planting a few trees. The origin of coal and oil took millions of years from plants, and we burn them in a couple of centuries.

I’m simply horrified to see NHS England now literally breaking the law in how it misrepresents physician associates & other allied health professional - who are NOT doctors - to the public. These posters are from the Bradford District & Craven Health & Care Partnership. 1/n

I'm not sure if this is entirely joking.🤣

It seems that I diced with death daily in 1977-8 when living in Sedgewick Street. Emmanuel College should have done a health and safety risk assessment before assigning me to such dangerous digs.

My brave and courageous friend Paola who died in Dignitas earlier this. Her Stage 4 bowel cancer treatments had stopped working and she had a terrible intolerance to opioids. Paola was already in a huge amount of pain and knew she could face a horrific painful death due to what
