Philippe,

I just posted a series tonight as I don't often get time to sit down  
- too much time working as a surgeon. I went in there last week as I  
wanted to document the interior before the builders arrive to  
refurbish it.

It's going to cost GBP3-4 million to do so and provide us with a new  
breast screening and cancer clinic. I wanted to go around the  
building, particularly as I will be working there for many years to  
come. It's helpful to understand what went on before.

Charlie
