@EZO_EV_Charging rebrand feels all snazzy for Irelands fastest growing network.. except if your in NI where some of the chargers are EasyGO UK and some aren’t so you need 2 accounts and a deposit in each.. no not confusing or irritating at all. Catch yourselves on.

Last big bird for 10 days.
Last 8 weeks my Carbon footprint has been “compromised”.
Glasgow sunshine is lovely. But now it’s time for whatever waits at home.

@harmonyhillps is where my youngest will be leaving soon and as part of the transition into big school the class have to reflect on their past present and future school life in a presentation. Aspirational etc. @SorchaEastwood I hope you don’t mind Erins aspirations.

They say never meet your hero’s but what do they know!
How could I not meet the man, the myth the ledgend that is @rbarbosa91.
Taking a keen interest in Monomax launch in the UK @asgbi .
Youngest (Erin) came home buzzing today having met @SorchaEastwood in ‘real life’ representing @harmonyhillps so brilliantly in the school council.
Thanks everyone for making her feel so special.
We are very proud of them both here in Lagan Valley Lisburn - GREAT role model.
Kinda done with the toxic crap that gets fed by an algorithm here - suggest you move to Bluesky.

One to repost and bookmark for all surgeons.
I might be @ethicon trained but we all bow down to @rbarbosa91 as the captain of insight and suture based real world investigations into 'but can it hold a melon ?' .Delightful. @JNJMedTechUKI
Once again: a🧵about 🧵's
It's been about a year since I last posted these, but for the new folks, here is a collection of links to each of my 🧵 about surgical sutures.
9 of these are about suture types and the other 3 are miscellaneous suture-related topics.

Oh dear. Long way to go. Wrong “theory” not a very scientific argument nor aware of published evidence. And a shocking grasp of positive language.
Don’t be like @mlkytee . Research a bit. Then comment.

Clear need for more educational events around obesity interventions.. quality of the panel question at the end was epic.
Bariatric surgery is the gold standard of treatment for severe obesity BUT needs to be performed in carefully selected and well-prepared patients with multidisciplinary support and follow up. Prof Helen Henghan gives excellent closing presentation on #bariatricsurgery.

No matter how many times we hear @HeneghanHelen talk we always get to learn something new.
The room is full with primary care physicians and yet completely silent listening intently to Bariatric surgery case studies. @JNJMedTechUKI @NIPCIRELAND @ICPObesity
Professor @HeneghanHelen presenting now
"We need to see that treatment is not one versus another. All options of surgery or medicines have their place"
Obesity Masterclass @NIPCIRELAND
Delighted and proud to be part of this important discussion.
Stellar education line up across the full day.
Patient first dialogue; challenging bias and stigma; Access to the right treatment and follow on support. @NIPCIRELAND @icpo @JNJMedTechUKI
.@DrMCrotty kicking of this morning's #ObesityManagement in Practice Masterclass. Looking forward to a jam-packed agenda and stellar speaker lineup on this very important topic.
A wee snippet of @TimmyMallett each day as he toured NI over the last few weeks and now The Republic meeting the locals and sharing smiles is really all the joy anyone needs.
