Hi Tom I'm hooked on your blog because you are so far removed from me that the interest factor is off the scale. I don't live in the UK, I don't think I've ever been in an ambulance and I can only guess at your mental state day in/day out. Yet your writing tells me in great detail what your life is like, what troubles you, even what you crave. Seems you're not so different from the rest of us in a lot of ways, with particular emphasis on decent, compassionate, humane..... Your writing is compelling, please keep at it. Self-promotion - Off.
