Re: French Medical Cert Sign Off?

Had to do this a couple of times, has just a box ticking exercise. Somebody else off here (who will remain nameless) signed his own something along the lines of Dr W White ☠️

My GP surgery signed mine, but I had to mither them a fair bit. Might even have a blank letter if you need one Greg..

Have a look at Vikings Tapes eBay shop- https://www.ebay.co.uk/str/vikingtapes?_trksid=p2334524.m4084.l113337 I wouldn’t get any of the thick stuff, it’s harder to work with & seems to peel off easier. Invisiframe uses the thinner, more flexible one. (can’t remember the ref numbers).. Not sure i...
