#58 Hot Chocolate - Scot or Not - Public Poking

Shannon and Tom are back with the Saturday Drop in to make your stay in hospital that little bit better! As well as our usual fun of Guess the Year and Beat Detective as well as keeping your up-to-date with our NHS Highland community in the coffee corner, we have a welcome return of This or That in 'Scot or Not'. However, we then found out that the writer of the quiz mis-sold us! Expect a claim. We finally find Tom's limit of a sweet that stops him broadcasting. Shannon takes great pleasure in being the designated driver on the Saturday Drop In night out. And, as our fame grows we get some responses from listeners on our notice board, in short, Tom got poked.

#57 Reduce Reuse Recycle with ILM - Late 20s - Cheating on Shannon

Shannon and Tom are back with another Saturday Drop In, along with the Saturday posse! We chat to Kenny from ILM Highland about how they are supporting the community by refurbishing domestic items, responsibly reclining and safely disposing of end of life items and supporting people to live at home for longer. Shannon is coming to terms with the fast approaching end of her 20s, while Tom supports her by abandoning her for some other HHR colleagues. We play Guess the Year and Beat Detective, catch up with some movie releases and binge TV viewing with Rory and generally just have a good time to make your time in hospital that little bit better!

Lorna also tells us about her YouTube series 'Learn with Lorna'.

We'll have your usual games of Beat Detective and Guess the Year as well as the NHS Highland Coffee Corner. Get in touch at socials@hhr.scot and subscribe for more.
