Hard to believe, but it is five years since I started this blog, with its heading ‘From GP to novice boat builder.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well, I’m still a GP, helping out at our local surgery two mornings a week. What started out with me offering to assist following the sudden loss of the Senior Partner, and doing my bit in Covid, has become well established and part of my normal week. I enjoy the clinical work and the patients, and I will miss it when the Practice decides it no longer needs me, or I finally decide to let medicine go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As for the novice boat builder, I am very much a novice still, but I am slowly building my first boat, and have done many woodworking projects using the skills I learnt at IBTC Portsmouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The cost of the blog domain and website facility is not that great, but the arrival of an invoice in my email in-tray, has prompted me to pull stumps and leave the blog. Instead, I shall take advantage of the no fee services of Instagram, and I hope that those following me here will take a look at my progress there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
