Well, despite #Cancer doing it's best to stop us, me and the incredible Mrs L have done 45 years of marriage today. Never thought I could find anyone to put up with me for so long 🙏 Here's a memory from that day. I had hair before the NHS gave me chemo!

To give some perspective to #Covid statistics. Currently we have 128k+ deaths in the UK since the start of the pandemic. In the same period we have lost 227k+to #Cancer (450 per day) Does anyone senior in our sector want to say something? Anything?👂

It is exactly one week ago since I added a count-up clock to my site showing #CancerDeaths in the UK. Since then 3406 people have died! Why is this not a priority? Is it because it doesn't impact the economy the way #Covid19 does? Do we just accept this now?
