Takes months for daughter to sort driving test, arranges for holidays as uni student, spends >£1000 lessons to be ready, flies back family holidays 4 days early for test. Cancelled on the day today 🤦🏼♂️ Thanks @DVSAgovuk Will have to return from uni for it now. Zero compensation

Another great start to the day on @SW_Help to London. Naturally, standing room only, WiFi doesn’t work but at least the miracle of leaving on time has happened 🤦🏼♂️

So we spend over £1000 on a new fridge freezer from @HaierOfficial delivered and installed by @ao and it doesn’t work! They just left it, said we might be able to come back Thursday! A family in warm weather with no fridge for 3 days? Paid to be a Five Star member - beware 🤦🏼♂️😭

This shows the fantastic news I had yesterday that my tumour is stable after my radiotherapy. Cannot thank @BrainTumourSurg, @enricoclk & @GenesisCare enough for all their efforts in getting me to this point. 🤞🏻12 months of chemo will delay the inevitable for a good few years

Was a great honour to open our program today for #WorldKidneyDay
@worldkidneyday So much has changed over my career. And to think we now have dialysis on site now in a brand new ward @UHSFT

💛 A Day to Remember for #WorldKidneyDay at UHS. From free kidney health checks to a sponsored run from Southampton to Portsmouth, today has been a huge success in raising awareness of kidney health. Well done to everyone involved! 👏 (1/3)

1/ Oh dear @drlukeevans In Feb👇 you were told 70,000 RPSS issued with remaining 60,000 "majority should be issued by end of Feb 25" That position was itself a *complete disgrace* - all *should* have been issued by the statutory deadline October 2024. So today's update...
NEW: Appalling performance from @NHSBSA 👇 60,000 NHS RPSS statements still outstanding. NHSBSA said they were meant to start coming out in April 2024, the *statutory* deadline was Oct 2024 Thank you again @drlukeevans for highlighting the mess around pensions admin and AA tax

Great progress on our site at Adanac Park where @UHSFT are building a new sterile services unit and aseptic pharmacy, open later this year. Great to see the roof covered with PV panels. It needs a name, any ideas?

5/6. You’ll often be seen more quickly at a dedicated minor injuries unit or urgent treatment centre. 111 can even book you in if you call them first.
