Some of the old databases I inherited do.... I have a budget this year to replace this system and the databases at last. You would be shocked, or possibly not, with the way the NHS in the past kept their data. It is slowly getting better as all the old legacy systems are shelved.

Can I suggest we trial 2 threads for a while and see how it works. I have also baled on this thread several times now because of the chatter and I think the competition is loosing its interest to a lot of people for that very same reason.
I am more than happy to copy over this month's entries and the rules as we know them currently into a new thread and link it in here so people can opt in via the 'watch thread' option until they have a photo leaving this thread as the chatter/waffle thread.

Oi I wrote some of the NHS systems years ago, and whilst there were name indexes the patient had a unique number (apart from when things went wrong
) I'll blame the systems that replaced the ones I worked on

It was the reason it took me a while to join in. I still remember finding the thread not long after finding the new posts button (it took me quite a while to learn all about the features of the forum!).
The first picture that I will never forget was someone on a bike with a cone on their head. I've since skimmed through the pages and found out that the culprit was @User9609. It sums up the fun side of the competition rather well, but it was confusing at the time.

However, I don't think you will have time today, you've got a Bake Off to win!

Well I can claim to be another who've taken a cone headgear photo, though looking back lots of the photos I posted on a hosting site are now gone.

You aren't the only one and we still get duplicate patients even with our 21st century systems.

I have to sit down periodically and rest because I can't stand for more than 45 mins yet... so I can do it now.

I am moving content over to it, then I will open it up to entries. If by chance you have an entry, just post it here and I will move it over. Just working out where the current comp starsrs havs taken me a while and working out whatto take over and what not to is getting interesting!

yep - it took a long time to find the start and re-read all of it and decide what has and has not qualified to be moved over... :ahhhhh:
right now for the big move! Shame there is not a copy option for individual posts...
Edit: there is a copy option - that will work much better. Right done.

Right folks. I have copied over the winner's announcement and the new comp plus what vaguely qualifies.
Yell with the post number or better yet report a post you think should be copied to the new thread if you think it is a qualifying post and similarly if you think something is over in the new thread that should not be. This one is now for waffle or pancakes only!
New thread is here https://www.cyclechat.net/threads/cycling-photo-challenge-pictures.186460/ and some of you will have been informed of this via the notification that your post has been copied over, if you have entered a qualifying post that is!
