Back in the saddle

Apologies all for the extended absence from posting here. Time for a more personal than usual update.

To make excuses the last couple of months have been very hectic and the site had to take a back seat.

Unexpectedly I picked up a liver infection last year and had to have my gall bladder removed in a hurry earlier this year. Expect a post on the excellence of QA and double checks within the NHS at some point. I have been very fortunate.

I have recently moved jobs. I am taking up a new position as Head of Quality and QP in a different business next week. I am really excited to get stuck in an develop my experience in a new area. More details to follow

The most significant life update is that I have had the life changing arrival of our son into the house and well, its hard to think of scenarios when you have chronic sleep loss. I focussed on the day job for a bit! This is something I do exclusively apart from my day job and I didn’t have as much time in the evenings.

Finally, with the move to my new role I am linking the site to my personal LinkedIn account. While I am not, and nver had hid from anything I write on the page I have always wanted the content to “stand alone” (like every good GMP document) and not have its value tied to my personal experience but ultimately to gradually improve the content and links the site can use this is for the best.

I have a couple of scenario questions and training notes to share over the next few weeks and will hopefully be settling down to a more consistent posting pace.

Thanks for your continued support

Mark
