First up - another Harold Shipman joke from my mate Ben. He has been spectacularly late in his text jokes over this, but he managed to send me an original one yesterday.

Harold Shipmans last meal was a curry. The warden asked him how it tasted. "Not bad" said Harold "but I could murder a nan."

Groan!

After yesterdays patter (ooh!) about making posters, Shells course work from yesterday included tarting up a flowchart - in her words (stolen from Rhiannon) "by using glueing and sticking". Come on people. Nurses do not need to be experts in arts and crafts in order to provide care to the elderly or injured. Or do they? Maybe I'm missing something here.

You know - instead of doing standard stitches in a wound - they could do a cross-stitch of Winnie-the-Pooh holding a balloon. Or maybe, when assisting in a skin graft, they could do a little decoupage instead. The possibilities are endless. I will think about this some more, I think :)
