Success at last – a genuine contact with a potential life model for the medical school. Thanks to MB & IM. And is often the case, when something is successful it’s also relatively straightforward, leaving you wondering why you didn’t sort it out ages ago.
Tomorrow I’m off to the Clinical Education Centre for a “Humanities Workshop” afternoon. It promises to be interesting as I’ve no idea what it will involve. I can’t help remembering my little nephew’s very first school report, which read (under the heading “Humanities”) “James has a lot to learn”. At the age of 5. There’s a surprise then. I confess it has left me a little sceptical about the use of the term – humanities for 5 year olds? This was in the mid-eighties, so perhaps there was a fashion for pretentiousness in primary education at the time. Aforesaid nephew seems to have survived the experience.
