It's been a long and busy day, filled with patients who refuse to stay at home just because the streets are paved with ice, and I gave up half my lunch break to screen a blind octogenarian who'd journeyed through the snow for five hours on six buses, via the wrong hospital, just to get there an hour late. So I'm a little bit tired, and I've got an ice-cream headache from all the sleet.

But if there's one thing which can perk me up when I get home, it's the sight of Amelie advancing towards me with a camera in her hands...

I think soft-focus is definitely the way forward. She also does a mean self portrait...


I'm hopeful that if I leave my camera lying around every day, I'll eventually come home from work to find that Amelie's filmed the next found footage masterpiece, and I can take early retirement.

On behalf of that blind octogenarian, I am SO glad it was YOU doing that clinic.  Imagine if he had been turned away and told to come back next week.  You deserve a medal (and a noticeable weight loss for missing half your lunch!)

To be honest, I think he deserved more of a medal than I did. Preferably a chocolate one - he hadn't eaten since breakfast, and his blood sugar levels were dangerously low.

Woah! I'm really loving the template/theme of this blog. It's
simple, yet effective. A lot of times it's difficult to get that "perfect balance" between usability and appearance. I must say you've done a very good job with this.

Additionally, the blog loads super fast for me on Safari.
Outstanding Blog!
