Hi there.....

Three months have elapsed since I wrote anything.

Three glorious happy months off the hamster-wheel of work.

I have not even kept up much with what has gone on in the healthcare system of the UK, as it just seems to be going from bad to worse; I have family and friends who are still working within English General Practice, and they keep me up to date with what is going on. I wish them all the best, as the next 2-3 years will be challenging times for everyone.

I am cautiously returning to blogging, and hope that this is not too self-indulgent.

The next thing on the horizon is a long holiday in France. You might say 'a holiday from what?', and that is a fair point. However, I hope when I return to start giving a viewpoint on healthcare in England, and the position of the patient as well as a retired doctor.

Getting prepared pour mes vacances.......

So glad your back JD - missed ya!

The word verification is a chore and it is much easier (for us who wish to comment) to disallow anonymous comments by ticking the appropriate box on post and comments in Settings.

Enjoy France - is your holiday soon?

Thanks, Anna. Now I am out of risk of the clutches of the GMC and no longer am worried about trolls, I have switched comment moderation off.

Hope that helps.

Hah! I was just about to delete the bookmark. Now I won't.

I've had a couple of great French choral pieces banging round my head recently: Fauré's Cantique de Jean Racine and Josquin's Nymphes des Bois.

Good to see you're back; happy hols.
