Plodding along!


Well, yet agin it's been ages! Oh well.

First things first - exciting news:
  1. I passed MRCS Part A - which means I am now half way to being a surgeon. Part B: the practicals will be taken sometime next year after I get back from Malawi.
  2. I passed my theory driving test and have booked the practical for 28th June.
  3. It's getting closer to Malawi time! I've pretty much got everything sorted for going now, just have to pack and change my home address back to my parents. I keep wanting to pack NOW, even though i's still 2 months away!
Well life is slowly plodding along at Worcester Royal hospital - numerous on call duties, clinics that last forever, and interesting surgeries. I'm yet again on call next week - on my birthday of all days :( I guess it's a sign of getting old when you can't set aside a special day for your birthday and you just have to get on with the day as usual, no party rings, or cheese and pineapple on sticks, just whatever the NHS canteen has for two quid!

Anyone else looking forward to the World Cup? I'm not in anyway convinced that England can win, especially after their performance against Japan just now, but it'll be good fun to watch the whole tournament. I was much more impressed by Leicester Tigers yesterday winning the Rugby Premiership - that is what playing with pride, power, and passion is all about - the England Football team should take notes!
