Hi
thanks for all the helpful replys
Geoff in response to your question "why another Nhs department" apart from the decent pay and good holidays maybe the day to day relationship you build up with the clinical staff, hopefully thats still possible with going private.But i agree with you its dead mans shoes and there are better opportunitys out in the private sector .

Unfortunatley as Dianuj pointed out the Southwest Consortioum is looming round these parts so the times are a changing

As you slide down the bannister of life, may the splinters point in the opposite direction!
