    This is the fifth in the ongoing series on the life of 17-year-old George James Dixon Jr, a Dockyard apprentice who arrived in Bermuda during 1937. With Easter now behind us, we settled right into our new lifestyle, a free and easy one to say the least. Even the three-mile ride to work was a leisurely affair, with a few brief stops on Watford Bridge and Gray’s Bridge for a chat with early morning fishermen. Our work start time was 7.30am and the system of checking in was rather unique. All emplo

    Physician’s position an insult to nurses (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Just when I thought I could put away my nurse’s cap, along comes another challenge to discredit the intelligence, dedication and the superior training of our nurses. There was a headline in Saturday’s Royal Gazette titled “Special nurses may get bigger role” followed by an interview with the president of the Bermuda Medical Doctors Association.

    This is the story of George James Dixon’s arrival in Bermuda as a boy in the 1930s, continued from Saturday’s edition Our water requirements were a perpetual headache as it was my job to pump it up to the gravity tank located in the roof space — all by hand pump.
