I will never forget the very real fear that I and my colleagues could die due to inadequate protection and using Mercedes Benz disposable polythene service seat covers (kindly donated by a local dealer) as makeshift aprons in the early days #covid #ppe www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
PPE failures left NHS staff poorly protected and wasted £10bn, Covid inquiry finds

A stroll around the garden in morning light with coffee in hand earlier today. Could be a bumper crop of grapes this year
A wander around the garden at dusk. Still, warm, quiet and some purples under an orange sky
Any Cardiff medics from the last 40yrs will remember the surgeon Brian Rees. This from a recent Cardiff alumni newsletter
…and in a different location, the home of one of the most debonair Hollywood movie stars in the most beautiful location.
Talking about back stories, I’ve chanced upon this villa which *definitely* has a back story. The clue’s on the nameplate on the wall… #RollingStones #Nellcote
Travelling by taxi in the south of France and wondering if there’s a back story to this cab! 😳

Still in #Girona. There have been many magical moments but the coastal loop was definitely one of them. Sun, 26°, perfect tarmac, low traffic density, stunning views and great coffee, food and company
I’m not one for posting videos of myself but I’ve just had one of the best bike rides of my life. Coastal road starting in #Girona. The perfect day.
Dream finish to #ParisRoubaix26 for #WVA. Richly deserved!
Sat in Girona watching Paris-Roubaix, surrounded by more ex-professional cyclists and cycling memorabilia than I’ve ever seen under one roof
We celebrate diversity round here, and if you don’t like it you are free to stay.
The wok is warming and the smart money’s on this lot turning to inedible burnt carbon black charcoal in my hands in the next 15 minutes
There’s a street in Cardiff called Caroline St that the young whippersnappers are calling Chippy Lane. It will always be Caroline St to me and I refuse to call it Chippy Lane. Same with 🚴🏻♂️ Ghent-Wevelgem 🚴🏻♂️….

Girona again soon, to cycle with my 2 best mates and my 2 sons. Hoping world events won’t put a spanner in the works! 🚴🏻♂️
