2. And once we told her that actually he is just a 6 year old boy who is allowed to choose the colours he wears, she went gossiping about Rohan in fact being a boy, not a girl to her colleague. Really upsetting and unprofessional @JohnLewisRetail 😡

1. So disappointing that I've had such a negative experience whilst school shoe shopping today @JohnLewisRetail first the assistant made the assumption Rohan is a girl because of his hair and he likes the colour pink (wore pink socks)...

The irony of "staying alive" on the radio in COVID ICU is about all the joy I've found today. FYI crashing your car on the way to work is not the best way to start the week... Hate COVID. Hate snow. Hate Mondays.

Completed my first 12 hour night shift on @NUHCriticalCare Whilst I'm used to working on ITU, it felt daunting not being there as a physio. V lucky to have had support from fab nurses getting me through 12 hrs in PPE! Thanks @NUHTherapies for releasing me. Our ICU nurses rock 💙

We are still exhausted, more than ever before. If only people realised how much worse it is now, and how stretched we all are. #COVID19 #NHS
I posted this nine months ago and thought it was worth repeating.

Anyone else’s first thought when they walk into a room at this time of the year...’is there a spider in here?’
