    Post-Split Post Nominals

    Anyone know what post-nominals we will be using to indicate that we are registered once the split has happened?
    Where am I?; In the Pharmacy.
    Who are you?; The new Number 2.
    Who is number 1?; You are number 6.
    What do you want?;..................

    Re: Post-Split Post Nominals

    I once said that I was thinking of founding a pharma-postnominal society, allowing the use of the postnominal MPS. Founder members would be able to use FPS. Any takers? Registration would be a snip at £50 [for cash] and the code of ethics would be clear, approachable and unintelligible, but would assume for some natural common sense.

    Barristers, apparently, use the catchy postnominal "Barrister". Perhaps that will be our guide.
    ....just my opinion

    I'm not a post-nominal hunter by any means.
    Roll on November 2018 when I take the white coat off for the last time and be done with it.

    I used to be, but I'm pretty sure I'm not now. No-one uses them nowadays, anyway!

    I used to say that I never want to retire, but now I suspect that someone will take me out and shoot me eventually. The problem with postnominals is that they come with meddlers attached.
