    Saddle for Section D

    I bought a new Monarch GP for my Section D a while ago. It's so lovely and comfortable. It has adjustable gullets and comes up to extra wide.

    I somehow anticipate tax payers will end up burdened by the financial responsibility of this case. I can imagine all parties will insist they have no income to find any prospective fines. If they get a custodial sentence it will still be the state that pays. Ms Jurecka is still very much in...

    Border Collies are great combinations with horses. They are loyal and agile and not likely to wander off.

    Doctors vs vets

    A routine day for me is travelling our catchment area dealing with crisis situations. There is not enough time in the day and the office phone never stops ringing. We still do a great job taking into account staff shortages and ongoing cutbacks ,before we get round to tacking the paperwork.

    Doctors vs vets

    Doctors have to spend much of their working lives in continuing professional development, all of which entails ongoing training. I'm sure Vets have similar training needs. If we all want good care we must support Doctors to increase their skills. Many Doctors have to self fund and most have to...

    Doctors vs vets

    I can only assume Vets are able to manage their practices without too much bureaucracy which gives a certain amount of latitude. This would free up staff to concentrate on attending to the needs of their patients. The NHS is strangled by bureaucracy that is now called business intelligence...

    Doctors vs vets

    Well said spooky pony. The public seem unaware of the cuts made by this Government and policies applied which breaks the NHS. This is so close to my heart,as a registered Nurse. Too many people also make assumptions about the NHS with no understanding of the reality of what is going in.

    The vast difference is there are 60 + million people in the UK who at some point need to access the NHS either via primary ,secondary or tertiary care. There are not enough resources to meet demand and this is complicated by too many people going to see their GP,or presenting to emergency...

    I think it's such a shame a professional of this calibre would sully his professional reputation. After many years training and practising to end what should be a good career on such a low is simply sad. Unfortunately this happens in other clinical area such as medicine and Nursing. Perhaps...
