flaming june

Last week, even in unreliable Ireland, the weather was set fair all week, and this week here at home it remains gloriously warm and sunny. Seems to me we have waited a long time for a good June; in fact as far as memory serves, the only good ones were when I was revising for exams- and that's a long time ago...

Back at work today, surgery is its usual busy self as after any period of time off. People develop such a brand loyalty for their own doctors that many patients are quite happy to wait till their preferred medic has returned. This might be taken as an ego-stroke, but the fact is that people love their doctors however good or bad they might be; after all, even Dr Shipman had his loyal adherents who refused to believe any ill of him despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Well, the ones that weren't murdered, anyway...
