Thursday, 15 May 2008. The latest Government priorities include looking at the problems of Obesity within the community. This is becoming an increasing problem as we see the end result of a number of factors:. Loss of community open space and amenities. Increasing use of computer games for entertainment. Parents' paranoia about letting their children play outside or wandering. Loss of school playing fields as a result of Government's failing to ring-fence their use. Posted by Jobbing Doctor.

Old Age is a Bitch: September 2008
http://oldageisabitch.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Old Age is a Bitch. Tuesday, 30 September 2008. Yesterday afternoon was bridge once again. We found that last Tuesday's results were on the board. We came second bottom (still at least some played worse than us! I really enjoyed the afternoon. I keep making the odd mistake in filling in my scorecard, so I have to score it out and the card looks messy. However, I saw one of the players using a pen with a built in eraser. So, what did I do? Tracked them down on the internet and ordered them. I find it diff...

Medical Mycroft: Monetarist Madness
http://medicalmycroft.blogspot.com/2008/05/monetarist-madness.html
Saturday, 31 May 2008. One of the great pleasures about travelling away from the general hurly-burly is to take a few good books with me to read - the kind that I find (after an 11 hour day) too exhausting to get into. . I have spent some of my holiday reading (and completing) a book called The Shock Doctrine. By a Canadian Journalist called Naomi Klein. In no particular order:. General Pinochet of Chile. President Suharto of Indonesia. George H W Bush. The Union Solidarnosc (in Poland). I see the hand o...

Old Age is a Bitch: February 2009
http://oldageisabitch.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Old Age is a Bitch. Saturday, 28 February 2009. The veg box delivery ran out of potatoes yesterday, so I had to place an order with T* *o for delivery today between 3 and 5pm (the earliest vacant slots.). 530 I phoned as the order had not arrived. Soft words "the order is on its way". 6pm I phoned again. Same thing. 630 Eventually the store called me back. The order had been left with a neighbour. At last I collected it and I am now fed and watered. Stocked on a regular basis. Labels: chest of drawers.

Medical Mycroft: Welcome Mycroft
http://medicalmycroft.blogspot.com/2008/05/welcome-mycroft.html
Wednesday, 14 May 2008. Mycroft Holmes was Sherlock Holmes' cleverer brother. I have decided to use the euphemism 'Medical Mycroft' so that I can focus on the more philosophical parts of blogging, so the Jobbing Doctor can do all the ranty, whingeing, political type stuff. I am Mycroft, and I slightly despise the down-market approach of my younger brother 'Medical Sherlock' or The Jobbing Doctor. I will be much more educational, and reflective. That is what Blogging is about. Posted by Jobbing Doctor.
