Got locked out of my account but I am back now. How are things around here? Is it taking off or have we plateaued?

That's shocking. I've got this inner narrative that we can do better in London. Sadly disproved time and again.

Dare I try to import everything from Living Writer across to Scrivener? Anyone done this and remained happy? #writing #creativewriting

It’s a very smooth coffee with a slightly nutty taste. There’s a series of rituals around coffee here, too long to go into but coffee and how it is prepared and served is at the heart of the culture.

Understand! I spend a lot of my online time in a cat group pretending the world is a purring, furry piece of love.

Anything from the next day to 6 months or never.

I love The Hilton Addis. In this rapidly changing world, it is timeless. #Ethiopia

Thank you Nadia! I think I need to clear my browser cookies and cache as my next move. Trying to work out how to do on a Mac.

Can anyone help with why my nhs.net Mail is working so badly from home? It’s unusable recently.

Dr Claire Davies @clairedocdavies.bsky.social · 24/03/2025

Yup, that’s exactly how it is. Portfolio work has become a popular way to express freedom and autonomy and balance the days in the cage. There are different ways to be a bird in the cage too.

It’s here and just page 1 is a joy to read for the quality of the writing, the breadth of a moment captured

Separate notebooks for separate projects but I do have less than 75 on the go.

Guessing there is a part of them that finds it unbearable not to be able to step in and fix it

Massive plate of Ethiopian food. Lentils, veg, beef strips, raw green chillis, spices, yellow split peas, all served on a large communal plate of injera bread (the grey stuff with holes in).

Reading this slowed down my racing mind as I finished a very busy shift

Haven’t made the roti but here’s the recipe. If you want the recipe for the roasted curry powder, I can give it to you. From the Far Eastern Odyssey book which is excellent

Dr Claire Davies @clairedocdavies.bsky.social · 14/03/2025

This is from Rick Stein, the curry is excellent

Fonts - I used to scoff but once you get into it and the psychology, it’s huge. Just moved to Garamond which is like Times New Roman but more elegant.

Dr Claire Davies @clairedocdavies.bsky.social · 14/03/2025

Like Times New Roman for a classic feel. Recently migrated to Garamond which has a touch of elegance for me.

I have been asking this question for years, people just glaze over!

It’s well worth just taking away 10 years from the NICE cut offs for 2 week referrals. I used to call it the Tower Hamlets factor.

Not gonna pretend my lane is the politics of how the NHS is run and organised. However a period of processing shock and grief before making any new manœuvres will be needed for many people.

So, NHS colleagues. How are we taking this morning’s seismic news? Bad or for the greater good?

Setting boundaries has a ripple effect: not just in your wellbeing, in role-modelling self-care to others and preventing burnout. They also increase confidence and help you live your full potential. Read more on my latest blog: drclairedavies.co.uk/understandin...

The ripple effect of setting boundaries - Dr Claire Davies

Not only does medicine make many demands of us, but we went into medicine to help people. That often means we find it harder to give permission to ourselves to say no, set limits, or think about what ...

My annual review is with the pharmacist now instead of my GP of 20 years. It’s exactly as you describe: safe, pleasant, professional, a tick box exercise lacking any curiosity or wisdom.

This will seem counter intuitive but I am doing sleep restriction with Sleep Station for my 3am waking and it’s really effective. Tough at first but one week in and I’m a new woman. Increases your sleep efficiency.

Thanks. I’m through that bit really. It’s the Face Facts bit now where you read it and see it is sh*** and have to sort it out. Word by word.
