I am fast approaching my final week working for James Hull Associates in Birmingham; it has been an enjoyable 4 years and I have had the privilege of working with an excellent team.  I have been able to continue to develop my skills in cosmetic and implant dentistry and I have undertaken some remarkable cases, restoring their smiles and providing them with life-changing self-confidence.

I now have some draft plans for Augusta Place and I am getting down to the sort of detail that will ensure the practice looks and works exactly how I want it to.  This has involved browsing through a lot of equipment catalogues, but also a visit to the Ultradent factory in Munich.  However, most importantly I have packed my bags and loaded the car ready to take the children camping for a long weekend in Woolacombe.

Holiday Time

We have just returned from a most marvellous break in the Outer Hebrides; you don't usually go to the Western Isles for the weather, but it was good enough to allow the children to play on the beach on most days.  Life in the Hebrides was quite a contrast from the commute into London or Birmingham and I thoroughly enjoyed the quiet pace of life; rarely have I felt so relaxed on holiday.  However, the 8 hour wait at Glasgow Airport on the journey home got me back into the swing of things.
