Journey of a lifetime

Well what a couple of weeks since the french holiday. Surfing on God's blessing! Have been very busy at work but it has been very enjoyable, with some extremely unwell patients to see, including a mystery patient brought into the hospital completely mute, via sleeping rough on the streets of Edinburgh! Another patient is so ill we are doubling her medication every few days - in the words of Dr House "it`ll either kill you or cure you!" Just joking folks!

Strategically we are facing a season of complete change as we enter into the organised chaos of Foundation Trust application - bye bye comfy disorganised NHS and hello big business. Many of the staff are going to struggle with the transition into a sharper financial culture, however I am discovering that I love it. The sharper the decision and the greater the change the happier I am - a bit of an adrenaline addict I think!

The big fun recently has been doing some songwriting with a friend (Hi David), as a pair of old rockers we wanted to write a Rock anthem but ended up with a soft girlie ballad - which will be played after the encores in the set list! We now have to work on the rest of the set - get writing David!! He assures me that he has a "U2" style song on the go - cunningly using almost exactly the same chords AS OUR FIRST SONG! Well Oasis did quite well with that plan!

Tonight we are off to see Journey on their last date of the current tour - over 75 million albums sold worldwide and a new CD out - they are one of my favourite bands from the teenage years - so I will be in heaven tonight!
