Representation mattersโ€ฆ When I started my Speciality Training the @Assoc_Anaes had just elected their first #LGBT President @startle65 Today the @Anaes_Trainees committee will have 4 #LGBT representatives Seeing yourself represented makes such a difference

Interesting that the only people to exit the hotel during a fire alarm this morning with all their belongings, fully dressed, coiffed and made up were the @AmericanAir cabin crewโ€ฆ Twenty five minutes after the rest of the hotel had evacuatedโ€ฆ Doesnโ€™t fill you with confidence!

Getting up for this mornings commute was particularly rough Remember clinicians are humans too You never know what they have just dealt with and seen The day it doesnโ€™t affect me is the day I quit I have some amazing colleagues and teamwork makes all the difference

Three months of being told it was fake Lockdown was brutal to everyone in so many ways But without lockdown the hope that healthcare professionals rely on to do their jobs would have disappeared
