@scssofas sofa ordered 19/7/25. Current estimated delivery date is 10/12/25. Same sofas (if ordered today on the website) the estimated delivery date is 18/11/25. How can it be before my estimated date when I ordered mine 6 weeks before!!! #makeitmakesense

Do you know someone who uses a telecare alarm? Landline phones are switching to digital, which could stop telecare alarms working.

Remind them to call their landline provider for support.

@Tjkey @Leic_hospital @TheBMA Not the first time I’ve heard this about CDU. Hopefully they get this sorted for you ASAP. Would highly recommend raising it to the chief exec if you’re getting nowhere. He’s very on the ball and it sounds like you’ve got enough going on without all this too.

[Phil Arkley @philarkley]

@Microbedoc2 I’ll probably request some fungal markers and start them on some voriconazole anyway, just in case!

@Microbedoc2 Haha I love this

[Phil Arkley @philarkley]

@danj_h Definitely agree about mealtimes, once you get over that it’s great!

[Phil Arkley @philarkley]

@Microbedoc2 Amazing work, well done it’s made you look younger! I’ve dropped 25kg in a similar time but still got more to go!!

[Phil Arkley @philarkley]

@Microbedoc2 Tend to have a bunch of group photos too where you have to try and figure out which one of them they actually are!!

[Phil Arkley @philarkley]

@KDogg0_o I know doesn’t seem like that long since I bumped into you on the ward after I’d returned to work!
