@Laphroaig So having sent me an email with a link to order some, it is just a circular link and I don’t seem to be able to (even logged in as a friend! Infuriating

Our 2021 Càirdeas edition is a rich, complex expression that is full of character. It's triple matured in American oak ex-Bourbon barrels, followed by quarter casks and finally in hogsheads that held PX sherry. It will be available soon in our webshop. laphroaig.com/en/cairdeas-20…

@purmj Day 5 is the magic day - we have been eating (in all modesty) wonderful sourdough- this morning we made English muffins with some of the “discard”- delicious!

Run out of yeast, so I’m trying to grow my own. 30 hours in and it’s already bubbling with quite a pleasant smell. I wonder how long before it will make a loaf of bread rise?

@BlLundon @johnlewis @jlpartnership @jlandpartners Ooo-that’s interesting- probably a bit late now but thanks for the info!

@ScaryladyHelen @johnlewis @jlpartnership Try @jlandpartners @ScaryladyHelen

You were absolutely correct - have had a response from @johnlewis but still nothing from @jlpartnership who seem to be obsessed with an imaginary dragon ☹️

My mother’s nursing home tells me not only do they have no Covid-19 - they currently have no patients with URTIs or UTIs They are wondering if this is a reflection of how well they are washing their hands these days. Discuss!

@purmj @DrSdeG @YorksAmbulance So sorry to hear this Mark. Sending all good wishes to you and yours Hx

@DrSdeG My father in law passed away with covid this am. We asked how those involved across organisational boundaries were being contact traced. Not. Fell on us to tell the ambulance service and the care home that their staff had been at risk. @YorksAmbulance superb.

Time to “test, track and trace” the science that we’ve supposedly been following?

But of course they are probably made by fishermen - it was th...................is big!

This is a bit of a joke @jlpartnership isn’t it?

And just for a final rant without the mount unsurprisingly the frame is 17 not 18 cm

And just for context here’s what I wanted to complain about - yes that’s a barely 9cm mount marked at 10 by 10cm (ignoring the fact that 4 inches is nearer 11 cm)

Ernest White, vice captain of @SaintsRugby died of influenza 101 years ago today. He was awarded the Military Cross in July 1918 for putting out a fire at an ammunition dump. Pictured here (far right) with Edgar Mobbs & Percy Fussell. All three would die in the First World War.

Leicester RCGP/LMC AGM welcoming Prof Martin Marshal (chair elect) to his first engagement enthralling (as always) his audience @leice

How can anyone have experience of everything? Extrapolating this means a GP would need to be infertile, a parent, struggling with elderly parents while being an orphan etc, etc. Empathy is the key - understanding does not equal personal experience!

We now have 1697 new GPs ready to join the workforce!! In June-July, the College reviewed the training for 1697 trainees & made recommendations to the GMC for them to receive their CCT. Great news! @HelenRCGP

Although I am a great believer in the old saying “ the harder I work the luckier I get”. Great talk @LeicsRCGP by @kamleshkhunti some years ago on Karma - there’s a man who recognised the role of luck and chance in life

Fantastic appointment and very well deserved
