Birthday update!
Having a chill day with boyfriend.
Pushing through my chronic pain to be more available to others as I am in the final months of my current home. One friend has offered to host a party for me in my own place — like a surprise party, she says, without the drawbacks. I'll leave her at my place & come home to a party! When to be determined.
I hope to move away yet strengthen connections.

NHS Radiology is stuck in a viscous cycle where a failure to recruit radiologists results in a capacity problem, which means departments have to outsource work, cutting the budge that could be spent on recruiting radiologists, while also 'encouraging' radiologists int private practice; you might call this stealth privatisation?
once again the health service has been pushed into false economies by the Tory engineered crisis that Labour needs to speedily reverse!
