Off to Zimbabwe in approx 6 hours time. Tom, there is no need to apologise for anything. Saying it as it is, is the way to go, or even not saying it if you are all dried up. There are lots of folk out there who read this blod or even blog, who, I am certain, have gained knowledge and some level of insight as to, not only how it really is in the ambulance world, but in the real life of a blogger. I expect to see lots and lots of ambulance related stuff on my return. By the way, I like shift work too, and can relate to this being your favourite. Early's and and long days were mine. Lots of good fun (mainly) work then lots of time off. Huge hug! Glenda the cyber-stalker!
