Having Children Is Fab. They Keep Me

I Like Reading, I Like Boring Things, And Yet I Think People For Ages Had This Image Of Me That I Was On The Tube With A Chainsaw Looking For Any Likely Candidate.

I Have A Utilitarian Approach To Dressing; As Long As I Quite Like It And It Covers Me Up, I Don't Care What It Is.

I Have Seen Good Nurses And Bad Nurses. They Existed Along A Continuum: From Hard-working, Kind And Competent People, To Office-hugging, Bone-idle Types, To Apathetic, Disengaged Automatons.

And I Also Felt That No One In An Audience Could Abuse Me Worse Than The Sort Of Abuse I Had Had At Work As A Psychiatric Nurse.

It Is Unrealistic To Expect An Entire Profession To Be Completely Good. There Are Bound To Be Some Individuals Who Are Stressed, Who Are Unkind, Who Are A Bit Rubbish At Their Job, Who Are In The Wrong Career.
