This entry is part 1 of 19 in the series Caption Competitions

Dunno about you, but I think this site seems to have got a bit stodgy lately. Lots of heavy discussions, and not enough CAPTION COMPETITIONS!

So, here’s this grim woman from the NMC site. What do you think she’s saying as she holds up her copy of the code of conduct? I’m sure Z could rustle up a prize of some kind (virtual or perhaps even real) for the best entrant

    The Code of Conduct as ignored by the NMC management.

    Current score: 2
  • “76 fucking quid and all I get is this lousy code of conduct?”

  • I think this is in fact a still from the forthcoming TV drama series and sequel to the 90s show Diagnosis Murder. The new series is called Nurse Practitioner Investigates

    Episode 1: Nurse Practitioner follows a set protocol to work out who’s been pilfering jammy dodgers out of the vending machine, thus making more effective use of resources and freeing up time for Dr Mark Sloane to work out who killed the antiques dealer at the beach house.

    Yes, good call beakie, this site has been well dull of late. I’ve not posted in weeks, because the site has bored me. And for the cleaver ones who will hold me in-pt visits resonsible for my lack of tinterweb postage – think again, managed to hack into the hospitals wi-fi. Their password was ‘password’ for christs sake.

    Erm — being pernickity but is that not her NMC registraton card she’s holding? It looks a bit small to be the code. Then again, the last time I actually opened any mail from the NMC as opposed to giving it the fast lane to recycling heaven, was a year or so ago – when they re-worded it did they also put in font size 4??

    Let me work on my caption . . . whats the prize?

  • What’s the prize? At this moment in time, I have absolutely no idea. Let me get back to you guys on that one.

  • Prize: You get to do next weeks Mentalist round up.

    Caption – as the all new degree nursing takes hold, she is holding a cue card on how to interact with clients that states:

    “Would you like fries with that?”

  • Considering early retirement? Feeling burnt-out and stressed? Wish you’d chosen another career? Fed up with forking out £76 to an unelected body of incompetents? Relax – these are all signs of an easily-curable mental disorder. Free antipsychotic patch with every Code of Conduct!

    “….and so, in order to get acclimatised to the frustrations experienced by anyone working in the NHS, what you do is insert this card between your bum-cheeks and grip it as tightly as you can.”

Gaze at the white card…gaze at the card…you are feeling sleepy…you think the 76 quid is worth every penny…the NMC are not a bunch of unelected morons who’ve been castigated by their own regulators…NMC does not stand for Numpties and Muppets Council….”
