Does anybody remember Vicki "Avent" Scott?

[hunkermunker]

Just wondering...

was she the one from the phillips avent microsite ofbadadvice

ooh well would you know it. I had her come round after I had dd and ds to advise me on routines and feeding. And then about 2 years later she popped up on MN.

That's the one, Lulu.

lawks, she gets around !

hmmm

[restrains self from libellous comment]

Who she?

apparently: "the up to date method of steam sterilisation is quick, easy, and efficient, with no chemicals involved-just the heat of the steam to kill off the bugs. Hospitals use this method to prepare medical equipment too."

Lawks, I never knew that hospitals use avent steam sterilisers to prepare their instruments I was under the impression that a high-pressure autoclave was more usual, but perhaps this explains the rise of MRSA.

ps fab name Belle, do you have a soft spot for dashing blockade runners?

sure i had an avent steam steriliser 10 years ago.. i was obviously cutting edge

donate it to your local operating theatre lulu, I'm sure they'll be glad of the cutting edge equipment. NHS budgets and all that.

You could stand scalpels upright in the little hoops.

i'll hoik it out of teh loft and donate it to SCBU tomorrow.... i'll have saved them £1000s, i hope i get a plaque put up in my honour!

[Hijacks] I tried to be a nurse TYV but they didn't want my kind of nursing [ends hijack]
