Asking for help is one of the most difficult things to do. So we dress it up in more acceptable language. Things are busy, lots going on, looking forward to a break. Let’s make sure we are really listening this week, it may be the most compassionate thing we ever did

We want to send our best wishes to Joyce Richardson who's pledged to stand up 100 times before her 100th birthday in June to raise money for the hospice who cared for her late son. Good luck Joyce! https://t.co/dHUFIqQ3Lc #stayinworkout #Moveitorloseit #SittoStand

So. @BorisJohnson just said that ‘most people would accept and agree’ with what Dominic Cummings did. Please answer and retweet. Do you accept and agree with what Dominic Cummings did?

Your moderately interesting word of the day is: PANDICULATION n. A stretching and stiffening of the trunk and extremities upon waking, or when tired and drowsy. Often accompanied by yawning.

Peelywally, there's a word I don't often use now

Do doctors or nurses ever use the term ‘peelywally’ for their patients? I think they should. There should be a peelywally scale.

I love being a GP and know a little bit about a lot of things But nurses, paramedics, physiotherapists, SALT, OTs, ANPs, mental health workers are ALL EXPERTS in their fields So you are not being “fobbed off” if you speak to them instead of me, you are speaking to an expert!

Waiting for 7pm @BorisJohnson announcement has me feeling anxious for the many interpretations that will come from it. I'd much rather keep #StayHomeSaveLives #ProtectOurNHS for a while longer
