First Posting!

Well, this is our first attempt at posting, so it's more to see whether we are able to be nerdy enough to manage this. We've decided that mass emails into nhs.net is probably not the way forward and have decided to join most of our friends and set up a blog. Obviously, it had to be pink.

Because of the mess that is Junior Doctor Training in the UK, we have been unable to secure posts as doctors in the UK, and have accepted posts in Canberra, Australia for a year. Ian will be doing Emergency Medicine/ITU/Medicine and Claire will be realising her dream by being a Haematology/Oncology/Palliative Care Registrar with some General Medicine (so as not to waste all that MRCP knowledge) thrown in. At least, that's what we think we're doing - we still haven't got the rotas through, but this is what the hospital and recuitment agency assure us we will be doing.

At present, we are still trying to pack up the house and force the mortgage company into a decision re selling/renting the house. 9 days to go - fantastic.
