@stefsmith Properly miserable, Stef. Hope you are feeling better x

@DrTerryQuinn Totally thrilled, Prof. ❤️

@virginmedia I think your resolutions team just invented a conversation ‘resolving’ a complaint and attempt to cancel my subscription. Sounds like fraud - or is this just accepted sales behaviour?

We've had a few rehearsals of this leaving day throughout the years. You've single handedly increased the BMI of us all due to "leaving cakes". For real this time though, albeit your back in 5 weeks for your first full qualified rotation.
The boy done good!! #proudofyou

@KR_dietitian @GeriSoc @irishgerontsoc But then I struggle with where the apostrophe goes…. Older people services, older people’s services, older peoples’ services…

[Greg Waddell @theGeriatrician]

Dear colleagues who provide specialist care for older people in hospital - what do you call your department? what do your patients think about the name?🥫🪱 @GeriSoc @irishgerontsoc

Deeply affecting theatre streamed into our home last night. Grew up a about a half mile from where #skekubayoh died. Same age.
My mum thinks it should be on ‘the syllabus’ for all Scots. We hadn’t talked about race before. Thanks @ntsonline @HanLavery AMAZING sound design btw...

Mostly frail, inpatient sample - but it was alarmingly low. 📵

[Kirsty Colquhoun @colki1983]

@DrTerryQuinn Did you see the bit of work @theGeriatrician did on our wards. Only 3% managed to access NHS near me. Was that right Greg? Apologies if numbers wrong but was very low!
