Things I thought I would never have to say. Please take paracetamol as the first line pain killers. Also, don't feel guilty if you need pain killers during pregnancy.

I was in Kingston, Canada, last year. I'm this university town, I was struck by the number of rugby pitches I saw, but more struck by the fact they were all filled with women. Grass roots are importsnt. Yesterday's result was not a fluke. Still epic though. #womensrugbyworldcup #canada

While i'm here, I'd also like to share some of my thoughts on trust and training surgeons

So my international colleagues understand, one of our royal colleges has just contacted trainees to tell them they gave incorrect results for an exam TWO YEARS ago. Around 200 doctors who thought they passed have now been told they have failed and need to resit.

Crisis. What Crisis?

The irony that these two things have been announced today should not be lost on anybody.
