@CourierEvri - tell me this isn't a joke! Oh, and do you actually know exactly where my parcel is at the moment? Two queries raised over the last 7 days and no replies.
Just had the best experience with the @easyJet twilight bag drop @BristolAirport. Absolutely no one there so breezed through and given a ticket to allow free parking too. Great way to get around operating difficulties. #contingencyplanning

Lots happening for @ScienceWeekUK including our Science Quiz today. Well done to CONYGAR HOUSE!
@Alex_Paramedic @jbrannan23 Absolutely agree. No problem with crew mate doing obs but I like a completely uninterrupted hx when no immediate. I think it's professional and ensures a complete and comprehensive hx. You'll rarely see any other HCPs doing both at once.

We were really sad to hear about the passing of Jethro. May you rest peacefully in the knowledge that the train does indeed now stop at Camborne on Wednesdays. #jethro

What a loss. What a loss. To his family & friends. To Taunton & the south west. To EM & medicine as a whole. Represented our specialty & our patients whenever he could. We (& they) are the poorer without him.
@mammut What do you think of our pumpkin?
Very impressed with @ThreeUK customer services. Spoke with Kingston who was able to resolve the issue within minutes. Thank you!
Well, a further job to an elderly person with low oxygen levels and then a trip to Wells for a week long shoulder injury concluded my shift. I'm grateful for finishing on time but it's been a busy one! Handed over to the night crew. Happy Christmas! Good night!
@Hanbub1 Just had some yule log. Cheerfulness is back! Hope you have a good one! #belikebill #chocolatesfixesmostthings
Mobilised to second job of day. Updates when I get a chance!
During one incident we worked alongside our colleagues from @dsairambulance.
Third patient was an unresponsive baby after a traumatic event. Luckily a significant improvement during my time with them but transferred to hospital with a crew for further observation.
Second job was to a patient who was having a stroke. Sudden collapse and FAST positive. Priority 1 backup and a rapid transfer to the CT scanner.
@BARB_OPS No worries and thank you Mike! Fingers crossed, and if I play my cards right, I think I'm lucky enough to have a Christmas dinner later!
Blimey! What a day?! Just having some food and will update. It's a crazy busy one out there today!
First job was an elderly male with diarrhoea and vomiting. They'd phoned 111 for advice but been passed to 999 due to some concerns over his symptoms. Discharged via the on call doctor for advice on insulin administration.
