Tales from beyond the bedpan! My mother was a strong-willed Irish woman who was determined that I should follow her into Nursing - I wanted to be a Pilot!

Reluctantly, I complied and, as a result, experienced some of the best years of my professional life!

From Carry on Nurse to Oooh Matron, you'll hear about my experiences and adventures in the early 1970s at Bart's Hospital in London.

About Lottie Dale

My dad was a spitfire, hurricane, mustang pilot in WW2 – he passed his love of flying over to me. I trained as a nurse in the 1970s, married and had two small children. Unable to learn to fly due to the costs involved, I took the next best route and learned how to fall out of a perfectly serviceable aircraft.

I have 4 light hearted PowerPoint Presentations on Skydiving, how I came to have a book published at the age of 70, and on my Nursing Adventures with both two-legged and four-legged patients. Which would you like to see first?

I am willing to travel to Newport & Cardiff areas in South Wales
