John Quin worked for thirty three years as a physician for the NHS in both Scotland and England, specialising in endocrinology.

Surgeons cut, but physicians... what do physicians actually do? And is it true that other doctors really call them 'the magicians'? John Quin worked for thirty-three years as a physician for the NHS in both Scotland and England, specialising in endocrinology. He was told the subject was easy because 'hormones - well, they just go up and down'. This, it turned out, was something of an over-simplification. Days on the wards were uproariously funny one minute, infinitely tragic the next. From tackling fraudulent medical students to trying and failing to induce hypoglycaemia in Glaswegian alcoholics (all in the name of research), Dr Quin, Medicine Man is packed with vividly told tales of the joy and reward of getting the diagnosis right, the disaster of getting it wrong. Chasing Chekhov's two rabbits of medicine and writing, meanwhile, Quin sought solace in literature, art and music, applying the lessons of Bulgakov's country doctor to 1980s Glasgow, where none of the patients seemed to have a full complement of fingers, and to 21st-century Brighton, dealing with the consequences of a decade of austerity measures. Darkly amusing and with a keen eye for the absurd, this sharply observed memoir is not only an acute insight into the farcical frustrations and tensions of working in a chronically underfunded system but also a timely reminder of the humanity of the NHS staff who care for us.

It’s good and non irritating
Perfect for daily use, it’s lightweight so if you have very dry skin (like me) u may need to use thicker moisturizer but it’s still pretty good. U can still wear make up afterwards with no issues which I loved

Excelent daily moisturizer
This is a nice, thick, ceramide rich moisturizer that provides great occlusion. I have really dry skin, and this is like a big drink of water for the face.

Hydrating Night Time Lotion
This product is so rich and hydrating. I wake up in the morning and my skin still feels hydrated. It is an amazing product especially for the price. I have tried many lotions and this is the best like literally better than high end ones.

Great toy
Color: Pawty
My dog loves this toy. I was pleasantly surprised to see it was a decent size for a stuffed toy, and not tiny. It seems pretty sturdy as my dog can shred some stuffed toys, but this one is still standing with the squeaker intact. The rope is securely attached within the toy and my dog likes to play some tug-of-war with it. Would recommend to other pet parents.

Husky approved!
Color: Cheers
Got this for my large husky to wear for his 10th birthday. He didn't tear it up right away. The squeaker lasted longer than it does with most toys. He seemed to genuinely enjoy the toy. Removed the stretchy string once I got a few pictures so he wouldn't eat it. Very cute.
