I very often start a blog post with not entirely knowing where to actually begin, and this is much the same as any other time but it feels different. I recently opened up on social media about struggling with Imposter Syndrome and feeling like I was largely pointless. At my worst I couldn’t understand the... Continue Reading →
Neck Appreciation Post IV – Bones
It had to be covered at some point, and the bones of the neck are an interesting little bunch indeed. Running from the base of your skull all the way down to the base of your neck is a neat row of bones encased in all the other stuff going on there. These bones are... Continue Reading →
Summer in the Suburbs
My oh my, it’s highly cliche and pathetic of me to state but it is ridiculously hot while I am writing this. In fact it has been so hot the last couple of days that I was told one point a part on the roof of the hospital reached 40 degrees centigrade. Britain is not... Continue Reading →
Adventuring Begins Again
Not entirely sure where to start with a weekly update, in comparison to last week this one was fairly uneventful all in all. I wanted to get out my Neck Appreciation Post by mid week but I only got a chance to finish it yesterday which meant it posted today also because I like to... Continue Reading →
Neck Appreciation Post Part II – The Thyroid
I’m fairly certain we’ve all heard of the thyroid gland. People have over active thyroids and under active thyroids, and we sort of all know that’s bad. Most people know that the thyroid is in the neck too, but do you know what it actually does, or what goes wrong when it causes problems? Let... Continue Reading →
Good Things Can Happen in Threes Too
The last week has been an eventful one, and that is putting it mildly. With slowly coming out of quarantine comes a lot of things all suddenly starting to happen or being planned which is both exciting and absolutely overwhelming. Last update I gave clues that my practical assessment was pending, what I didn’t say... Continue Reading →
No Pockets In Shrouds
It’s true, shrouds do not have pockets. I heard this proverbial saying this week while my other half was binge watching Shameless and it hit me as not only true, but also annoying. What if shrouds did have pockets? I mean, it’s not as if you could fit much in there but it would be... Continue Reading →
Renewed & Revived
As promised, here I am back in July to start again with my posts. I am pleased to write that I have been looking forward to doing this yet again and I feel much better than I did when I decided to take the break. The anxiety is still there, brimming under the surface of... Continue Reading →
Be Back in July!
As you may have noticed, I’ve been a little quiet on social media and on here recently. I’ve mentioned a few times that I have really struggled to put together blog posts, and I think that I feel that I need to take a little break from it all. Having considered this, it makes perfect...

Mask, Gloves, Soap, Scrubs, TikTok
We are currently constantly reminded through the media that we are in unprecedented times, circumstances and seemingly everything. This is apparently quite true but after a while it does just feel like unprecedented and unpredictable are the way things have to be now. I’m honestly very much struggling to write blog posts while the outside... Continue Reading →
