Peter’s Hospital Diary

I started back at work yesterday with a drive up to Corsham, and then drove back again for an early train trip to London, for both a haematology check up and a lung function test. There was a small problem in that the appointment was on the hospital system, however the clinic wasn’t that busy, […]
