@ryanadsett Got to get a Japan shirt with Mitoma on it

[Ben Chatterton @ChBen87]

@RosbifsRugby Ah that’s terrible! Mine has just arrived at my local Adidas to pick up but I did order as soon as I saw it…

[Ben Chatterton @ChBen87]

@willgkelleher @laurenemmaj Outstanding!

[Ben Chatterton @ChBen87]

@WestMidRailway Are you guys going to hold the 20:13 to Euston at a Crewe for all of us who couldn’t get on a train at Liverpool Lime Street?

[Ben Chatterton @ChBen87]

@deepamusafir1 @ignatiusliew @Schoolofsurg @orji_ck I also think in some of the subspecialties it’s very hard to accumulate the volume of cases needed during training to start as a consultant - I’m thinking with my paeds hat on, where there’s lots of operations we don’t do very often!

@ChefDoomy @KITH Hoping to get early access with the Vitality raffle 🤞🤞🤞

[Ben Chatterton @ChBen87]

@AndyOliverWpg 👌got to keep that Vitality!

@Harlequins @DHLRugbyUK I’d buy one of those cushions (maybe 2)

@ShaunLintern My on-call this weekend was fuelled by oatcakes! The really good shops open at 5 in the morning

@traumaticum @Gnomelover1970 I worked for someone who would cut the end off a TENS nail to make it sharper before a Metaizeau. Never been brave enough to try it myself

@CharlieFelix Some pass off his left hand for the Kolbe try. People would be raving about it if he was a 10!

[Ben Chatterton @ChBen87]

@AndyOliverWpg Are we getting the Wilson Monday program collection in the EU Andy?

[Ben Chatterton @ChBen87]

@GrahamMcNeill I dunno, putting your hand out to pet the creepy giant worm thing hissing scarily was pretty dumb

[Ben Chatterton @ChBen87]

@traumaticum They’re Thrust plates I think, Prof used to put them in at Oswestry - @rob_banjo would know better than me!

[Ben Chatterton @ChBen87]

@deepamusafir1 @traumaticum @BritOrthopaedic @bota_uk @JCST_Surgery @COPSSNews @NHSE_WTE Sounds like a really positive move. I remember learning about scatter from the II for the exam but don’t remember specific stuff about surgeon safety

Not to detract from the original discussion but I’m sure my hearing has also gotten worse, which I assume could be occupational

[Ben Chatterton @ChBen87]

@deepamusafir1 @traumaticum @BritOrthopaedic @bota_uk @JCST_Surgery @COPSSNews @NHSE_WTE Presumably also a particularly relevant topic for trainees who would use more x-ray during a procedure?

@traumaticum @deepamusafir1 @BritOrthopaedic @bota_uk @JCST_Surgery @COPSSNews @NHSE_WTE Have never seen a pair of lead glasses in a UK theatre
