Incredible project Dom - well done to you and @rmsteen

[Mathew Fortnam @Matty_Forts]

@Harrisiner @YorkMedicsFC @LThornton89 Haha..Chris Ashmore was good too..and our very own Adama Traore..Nabsy 'beast mode' Fitness!!

[Mathew Fortnam @Matty_Forts]

@YorkMedicsFC Yes three legs, @LThornton89 and Cress!! Anders I think was technically a loan signing so we cant count him although he was absolute quality!

[Mathew Fortnam @Matty_Forts]

@YorkMedicsFC Difficult to compare as whether on ability alone or overall contribution etc but Matt Russ, Leo, Jazz all should be in conversation. Kit Edwards, Joe Brennan and Ian McKellow from yesteryear should be in but need to dig through archives. Dave Attwood in nets was an absolute cat!

@HCVCancer @DanCottingham @CR_UK Congratulations @DanCottingham brilliant news

[Mathew Fortnam @Matty_Forts]

@DrThomasPC Bless her..Fingers crossed for you all!

Not fish fingers- Covid fingers ! From the 3000 pictures of Covid skin rashes you guys sent in - I am showing a few favourites like this very distinctive pic of rash on hands that often comes on many days after main infection. These cases were ignored until recently - #stayalert

@KevvyA @HC_One Thinking of you Kevin, so sorry to hear this

[Mathew Fortnam @Matty_Forts]

@StravaSupport I set up a club at work with a combined target of 10000km in June. The group type is set to 'other'. I can see runs and cycles on the leaderboard, but walks do appear on group activity. Do the walking km's achieved count towards the group total?

@DrAsifOfficial @AnfieldWatch @FCBarcelona Corner taken quickly ..

[Mathew Fortnam @Matty_Forts]

@docmagsy @HoldHealth @TonyeWokoma @DrAndrewGreen @vmjwal Sorry to hear about your loss Margaret. Such a difficult time for so many.

[Mathew Fortnam @Matty_Forts]

@AbbieSBrooks @Richard_GP @NHSDigital Had some unusual ones through from central searches, including things like Sickle Cell Trait and other rare blood disorders that neither the patient or ourselves were aware of, neither was it in the record! Lots of confusion has also stemmed from erroneous historical coding.

[Mathew Fortnam @Matty_Forts]

On day 10 out of 14 in isolation after our 14 month old developed tonsillitis. Trying to get a test for her led to frustration at every turn, with endless rules and regulations to trip over

[Laura Balouch @LauraB45825488]

Trying to get my 6 year old with a temperature tested so myself and husband can return to work as GPs..... Seems I have ventured into world of 'computer says no' and NHS bureaucracy 🙄 @MattHancock going to struggle to reach target with this system....
