It's hardly a daily diary but at least in this occasion its only a few days rather than a year.

Having a quiet day today as I had to forego my list because of a 'back' problem. Should be OK for the cardiac list on Friday .

Glen told me that one of the Cardiolgitst has checked with the local LNC about steve's recent email and predictably they think that the trust cannot just ride a coach and horses through nationally agreed terms and conditions - Foundation or not! I bet Steve's head hurts nowadays!! I have had the 2 school kids with me this week. They are extraordinarily keen and bright and they have only just done O Levels.
They are in echo at the moment. They then can come with me to the cardiology meeting (free food) and then a ward round.

ps. I have had to recover a bottle of pop in the fridge of the mangement corridor kitchen because Marie is unhappy about it? What is wrong with that woman?

Returning to blogging after another long interval. Its just like golf - can't quite get into it although i know at the end of the road it could be quite therapeutic and therfore keep forcing myself to come back! Actually, in the past 1-2 months, I have been reading more blogs and today I read in the ZDNET.co.uk that our glorious leader (TB) has been advised by a Silicon Valley CEO he should blog more. So here I am taking that advice for myself and I will try and do this regularly.


I have just had a frustating blood pressure rising conversation with one of Manchester's finest. he has decided on behalf of Halifax car insurance that it was not worth defending my version of the truth (backed up by good photographic evidence) of a car accident that occurred 2 months ago . They have accepted liability. They even were unwilling to get in touch with a witness whose details I have given them. My premium goes up, they get their money back and the old blind git who crashed into my car gets off scott free. And thats after I have paid hundreds of pounds over the years to pay for legal services. I am seething!! Either the law sucks or possibly Halifax car insurance could not be bothered to protect its clients by employing someone with a burberry baseball hat as its legal brains!!

well b*****ks to them
