I was talking to a local farmer who is doing his bit for red squirrels. There are less 'greys' around and he is sure he saw a pine marten one evening. Good news for the South Cumbria Pine Marten Recovery Project. In Cumbrian dialects, 'sweet-mart' is pine marten. art: Robert E Fuller

How is this even possible? We have a desperate shortage of GPs, patients are waiting weeks for a GP appointment yet fully qualified GPs can’t get work. Surely this needs fixing urgently
