This September was Bob’s 25th Anniversary of working for the NHS so a medical themed meeting seemed in order. We met at fellow NHS employee Dr P’s (who was about to have shoulder surgery). Roger was deflated by non-NHS work and hadn’t had the energy to make a playlist, he did however have a spectacularly inflated elbow due to bursitis. Bob was running on one eye as he’s awaiting cateract surgery after having his retina re-attached earlier this year. John and Jez were happily free of ailments……….
