I thought I would make a start at getting fit and would try going for a ride on my Son in Laws bike.  It was right at the back of the shed so I didn't bother. It's a shame as I was really looking forward to it.

I've just finished work. 1am I logged off. I have a 9am meeting in London meaning I'm up at 6:15 to make sure I get there on time 

I will curse anyone who calls NHS managers lazy to an eternity of use as a rugby union prop's jock strap.

No-one's calling you lazy. But that smacks of inefficiency.  Have you thought about being more efficient?  That will help the NHS more than money ever could.

So, work smarter, not harder?  I'd never thought of that.  You could be a senior consultant for Deloitte with that level of clarity and insight.
