I cannot imagine what it must be like for the lionesses to have WON the euros, then get 2nd in the World Cup, just for Harry Kane to say ‘England hasn’t won anything as a nation for a long, long time’. Also, female athletes have won gold at the last FOUR Winter Olympics 🙃

So proud of our operational teams in T & O winning team of the month for March. I’m late in posting it ! Their dedication and effort makes such a difference to our patients. Well done! @Lex_Gardner_ @KimberleyWoods_

A big shout out to our admissions/performance team in T & O who have worked so hard over the last few weeks ensuring our long waiters are dated. Ready for the next challenge @WWLNHS @KimberleyWoods_ @wrightington16 @Lex_Gardner_

The last time it snowed this much at work I was a chalet girl in the French alps, not the Directorate Manager for Trauma and Orthopaedics….could have done with skis for getting down Parbold Hill ⛷️ ❄️ 🏥 🖊️

The newly appointed Trauma & Orthopaedic operational team at WWL want to thank the directorate for making us so welcome during our first few weeks in post. @Lex_Gardner_ @KimberleyWoods_ @wrightington16

@dianesmith19 One place I tried to register the baby with would only register her (NHS) if I registered as Private!!! Since when where there financial conditions on NHS services for children based on their parents??

@dianesmith19 I get the difference in price, it’s commissioning and profit etc. What I don’t get is how they just can’t see you or accept you. Why is there a limit? You HAVE to be given an NHS gp, why not a dentist?

How is it possible that none of the 15 NHS #dentists I’ve tried to register myself and my daughter with are taking on NHS patients? I’ve been trying for months and now I need dental work done and will have to pay despite being exempt. Not good enough! #nhs #nhsdentist #dentalcare

@K_Fletcher_MP can you help?

Also the dental hospitals aren’t seeing emergency patients “because covid” - why is an elective patient any different to an emergency patient (crying in pain trying to look after a 9m old)

@dianesmith19 The baby or the bag? 😂😂

@Lex_Gardner_ Yes but you need it today just to look at it and see how pretty it is 😊

Have been debating buying a bag I fancied. Then my daughter was up 3 times in 6 hours last night. Long story short, my new bag arrives tomorrow.

@dianesmith19 This is true...but I probably didn’t need to get next day delivery, I mean where am I going? Made me feel better about being up at 12, 3 and 5 though 🤷🏻‍♀️ for a little bit at least

@Lex_Gardner_ Why debate, the bag was always going to be yours

@doc_alok Busted! Though I’d happily swap alcohol for this virus to do one!

@Lex_Gardner_ You’re just looking for a reason to cancel dry January! 🙄

I keep watching Lee Scoresby on #HisDarkMaterials and am expecting him to start rapping #iamnotthrowingawaymyshot

What the actual???

@S_Prescottx15x It’s not quite clear re childcare, as I’m not working at the moment! Though if I need care support when I’m sick or need a break I would call on mum for sure! Can’t bubble as I’m not a single adult household! Fortunately it’s come out that under 4s don’t count as a person now yay

@Lex_Gardner_ Hey Lex, I’m pretty sure you can still see your family when it comes to childcare and support etc as this was highlighted during the first wave, are you able to form a bubble with them? Xx

@NadineDorries @hope_mennim 🙌🙌🙌

Children under school age who are with their parents will not count towards the limit on two people meeting outside. This will mean that a parent can see a friend or family member with their baby or young children.

@micbai71 Thanks Mike - like I say, I’m so so lucky to have my little one and to spend so much time with her so won’t ever begrudge that! But there’s only so many times you can sing “wheels on the bus” before you want to set the damn thing on fire you know? Hope you’re well x
