I’ve kept off social media for a while, but had a craft afternoon with my daughter and did a quick water colour of the late great David Warner that I thought I’d share

Celebrate the 65th anniversary of "School for Scoundrels" with Art & Hue’s pop art starring Terry-Thomas, Ian Carmichael & Janette Scott. A stylish tribute to one of the most beloved British comedies, ideal for fans of vintage cinema and midcentury design. artandhue.com/sfs

RIP to one of the greats

⚠️ Bleomycin & anaesthesia⚠️ Do you know what precautions are required in patients who have been exposed to bleomycin? Exposure to high FiO2 at any time post-bleomycin exposure may trigger life-threatening pneumonitis. @DrSusannahP.bsky.social #AnSky #MedSky #OncSky https://buff.ly/42enyI9

New on @assocanaes.bsky.social website is the Catastrophe Handbook. Introduced at #WSM2025 by Ben Fox anaesthetists.org/Portals/0/PD...

@johnodreams.bsky.social @tharusha.bsky.social have either of you seen Creature Commandos yet?

I call it a “reverse Orea” …. Caviar sandwiched between a pair of sourdough crackers. I will not be taking questions at this time

I got to meet the delightful Andrew Robinson a few years ago and told him how watching his portrayal of Garak, and his proximity to Dr Bashir, partly inspired my journey to becoming a doctor. So it’s oddly serendipitous that a version of Garak is now a doctor. Thanks @mikemcmahan.bsky.social

Sweet Jesus @mikemcmahan.bsky.social ! Talk about going out with a bang. Fissure Quest is magnificent. Im not ready to say goodbye to this new crew, but thank you for bringing back some old friends to join the ride #LowerDecks

Currently stuck without power here in Wales, so keep me amused and show me your most random Xmas ornaments. Here’s a few of mine #ChristmasWithTheJoker #WhatAreWeDoingThisXmasBrain #NeedsOfTheMany

H/t to @vapourologist.bsky.social who shared this with me at a recent meeting. Please treat as mandatory CPD, read and commit to memory as we continue through conference season #MedSky #AnSky

Oh yeah. Forgot to mention it. I’ve got some ICU-Anaesthetic consultant posts out at the moment. Look it up on NHS Jobs. Feel free to apply if you are eligible; or if you’re not, just have a punt anyway.

I’ve taken a bit of step back from social media (especially the other place), but am trying to gauge whether there’s an appetite for #JanuAIRWAY to have a new home here #AnSky #MedSky

After a good start to day 2 of #SIVA24, I am now being personally attacked in the talk on burnout. I'm half expecting my face to be on the next slide. All joking aside, Simon Edgar's talk on finding joy in what we do is both moving and motivating. Cynicism is infectious, and we ARE the culture.

Great slide in the ETHICS section of #DAS2024 @dasairway from Catriona Ferguson Lovely summary - including the inherent conflicts within the law

Many teams are using the excellent “Clinical Frailty Scale” developed by the wonderful @krockdoc.bsky.social. (Often referred to as “the one with the pictures”!) BUT it needs to be used properly, so I was pleased to see this infographic with some top tips on how to do that. #MedSky #GeriSky #EOLC

#DAS2024 here I come

Bucket list item achieved. Owning a piece of animation history. @markhamillofficial.bsky.social ‘s Joker in the @pauldini.bsky.social masterpiece, Almost Got I’m. #BTAS

New name - but still the same! Follow us for all Difficult Airway Society (DAS) Trainee / Resident Doctor updates! 🦋 #AnSky #MedSky

How effective is HFNO for improving the view of the glottis during flexible bronchoscopy? New study by Osawa et al #anaesthesia #airway #HFNO #anaesthesia #Ansky www.bjanaesthesia.org/article/S000...

Being a 'good rescuer' is: • counterintuitive eg the advice to stand back & analyse rather than pile in & do something • counter-cultural eg using checklists rather than relying on memory Specific rescuer training would reinforce these skills. #AnSky #MedSky #HFESky https://buff.ly/3COBTjM

Aircrews do not train as teams, yet no-one has died from an accident on a British commercial aircraft for 35 years. Teams training together costs a lot, therefore teams don't train at all! Should we be more like pilots and train individually? #AnSky #MedSky #SafetySky https://buff.ly/3COBTjM

So who’s going to #DAS2024 next week?

Doctors I trust more than Dr Oz

Back in Feb the Royal College of Anaesthetists hosted a first, an event featuring several of us incl @drfreeze.bsky.social speaking about our careers and so much more. It was an extremely moving day. It is now available to watch online www.rcoa.ac.uk/events-profe...

My grandfather used to be quite the heartbreaker back in the 50s, great guy but a terrible cardiologist … This is the content you signed up for. Deal with it

Let’s see how this all plays out …
