Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 02/08/2025This has sent me round the twist, my employer in my payslip asking me to donate my wages to… my employer so they can… treat me better? Wild. Just another NHS moment. 0100
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 27/05/2025Trying to keep an open mind about this, can someone explain to me why the GMC insists on investigating and prosecuting via the MPTS criminal allegations that the police investigate and take no further action with? Why is this a role they've given themselves? www.mpts-uk.org/-/media/mpts...mpts-uk.org 110
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 20/05/2025Recently returned from Japan. Key take home message is that it’s very pleasant to live in a society where people trust and respect each other, knowing that there comes a great deal of shame from breaking the rules. Everything’s clean and kempt, everyone is polite and considerate. Loved it. 050
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 25/04/2025Hospital canteen: it’s £2 cheaper if you get that with peas, then it’s the meal deal. Me: I don’t need the peas, can we pretend I have the peas so I’m not just wasting the food Canteen: no. You need the peas or I’ll charge you more. 4203
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 23/04/2025Just saw Retrograde in the west end which was EXCELLENT and absolutely worth 90 minutes of your time. Don’t read the synopsis, just accept your fate and get a ticket. (Other things that are EXCELLENT still playing are Giant, Kyoto, Titanique, Benjamin Button) 020
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 23/04/2025I continuously make references to something being “based on the novel Push by Sapphire” which wasn’t funny a decade ago when people might have got that reference but still I must continue to keep the fire alive 000
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 17/02/2025Not to sound like an old man but why is the front page for UK users of BBC News prominently featuring a story about Saturday Night Live, a show that literally cannot be watched in this country? You can't stream it, it's not on TV. Who cares that it's had an anniversary show? 010
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 16/02/2025I feel like the number of people that tell me they had an issue after a previous anaesthetic of taking “too long to wake up” outweighs the number of times I’ve seen this problem 1000 to 1, who is telling everyone this?? 020
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 09/02/2025... in order to list your property for sale you have to put together a standardised pack which includes an independent level 2 survey, standardised searches and the fixtures/fitting form. Every normal person understands this. Unrelated but they also need to get rid of stamp duty on the primary home. 030

Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 28/01/2025It’s a bit cryptic but is the implication here a phone call was made to ICU but the patient not seen? Another example of treating any “making you aware” call as a need for full in person assessment? 020

Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 23/01/2025My traitors prediction, ignoring the Seer because it’s too much of a wildcard to build in (and arguably isn’t necessary as a mechanic at this late and exciting stage): - Leanne will call out Freddie and Alexander as traitors in the morning - Freddie will be banished, but will have started throwing 110
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 15/01/2025One wireless keyboard had within it a little Bluetooth receiver that she could plug into the USB port and it worked. There isn’t any other way as far as a quick search revealed, restarting doesn’t turn it back on. 010
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 15/01/2025Just fielded an urgent call at work - my mum switched bluetooth off on her iMac, and all the mice and keyboards in the house are bluetooth. It's actually a bit of an oversight, every Mac peripheral is bluetooth now, why does it not warn you before rendering you unable to control the computer? 130
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 09/01/2025Not the greatest year for British theatre but not terrible, I think my hit rate was quite high. Would have liked to have seen The Years, but will catch that on the transfer this year. Looking forward to 2025. 000
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 09/01/2025These were the disappointments. Especially Romeo and Juliet. School For Scandal is the only thing I walked out of at the interval. The Tempest wasn't completely terrible but Sigourney Weaver was, and that was most of the point of the production. Avoid! 100
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 09/01/2025These were my highlights. Not necessarily in a specific order just generally stuck up near the top. Many of these are still running, touring, or getting a west end transfer imminently and you should see them and tell me what you think. 100
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 09/01/2025My theatre wrapped for 2024. 44 shows seen, some at the fringe, overall 15 things outside of London. My strategy this year is to see fewer things but try and make every one of them a winner. The median ticket price this year was £35, it's still not as expensive as it seems to see good theatre. 100

Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 08/12/2024Just finished a rewatch of all of Breaking Bad, it completely holds up and justifies its place as one of the greatest TV dramas of all time. This time round Walter is much more clearly the bad guy from even just a few episodes in, and Jesse came across as a much more tragic figure. A great show. 020
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 06/12/2024I'm one of those people whose 'Wrapped' doesn't really work, hundreds of hours of study music, musical theatre albums with multiple artists credited on each song, and I think I must have left the 1975 playing on a loop somewhere for a day or two because they're in there and I barely know them. 000
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 03/12/2024😂 I think the strength of conclusion drawn from cardiac auscultation is a lot weaker than what the ultrasound wizard takes from the examination, but yes that’s fair 000

Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 02/12/2024I love the idea of POC imaging but these replies to a Bluesky post showing some lung ultrasound findings show how variable the training/abilities of POCUSers can be; two doctors saw precisely the same images and came to completely different conclusions. #critcare #Medsky 340
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 30/11/2024I did the European Trauma Course last week, and it’s true what they say, it’s a resus course which isn’t a bit rubbish. Would be fun to have a course like that but for medicine, an ALS aiming beyond F1 level stuff, with difficult team dynamics, clinical conundrums, prioritisation challenges etc. 130

Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 22/11/2024Anyway definitely worth seeing the film, it’s a camp celebration of the show, not least because the cameos. But stage is always best! 000
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 22/11/2024And I say that as someone who can’t watch Defying Gravity in the flesh without crying. I can describe to you the lighting cues. I can play you the whole thing (including the dialogue underscoring cut from the album) on piano. It’s one of my favourite moments of theatre ever crafted. 100
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 22/11/2024BUT whilst Wicked on stage has overstayed its welcome by a decade, it’s a very well put together show and I think it hits harder in person than it does on screen. The main exception was the Ozdust scene, which is just extremely touching in closeup. Defying Gravity? A bit meh on the silver screen. 100
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 22/11/2024No I did like it, I liked Jonathan Bailey being extremely horny and bisexual dancing around a library, I liked Cynthia Erivo doing a different take from the stage version of Elphaba, I thought Ariana Grande was perfectly fine. 100
Andrew Davidson @andrewdavidson.bsky.social · 22/11/2024If you liked Wicked but just thought every scene should be twice as long, then this really is the film for you. 130
