PGEA is dead, long live PGE!

[摘要] Many years ago I regularly used to read one of the weekly GP ‘comics’ (let it be nameless), and even wrote a few articles for it on unlikely topics such as living with a recalcitrant goat — I mean this literally, not as a metaphorical reference to any past colleague — and cider making. However, as time went by I found myself increasingly depressed by the experience. Every copy seemed to be full of, on the one hand, moaning pieces about the unhappy lot of the contemporary GP, and, on the other, accounts of single-handed feats of clinical acumen, superhuman efficiency or award-winning innovations that left me feeling thoroughly demoralised. So, one Damascene day, I took the decision to bin the magazine instead, with an immediate, though modest, quantum increase in my quality of life. All this is a preamble to saying that I think it's time I wrote something a little more upbeat than my habitual carpings, as a small contribution to saving this worthy Journal from a similar fate.
