The above is a link to ebay showing a Coventry badge.  Does the wording sound familiar?

Clearly taken from SoN by someone who doesn't really understand the subject.Shame that there isn't at least an acknowledgement.

At first glance you could mistakenly identify the two badges as a pair although in this case they seem to be unrelated.I never cease to be amazed at some of the claims made by vendors when selling alleged nursing items,the best thing is always to remember the latin phrase Caveat Emptor-Buyer Beware!

Hi. I am not certain of the provenance P, but I would agree with your comments 100%....

Unless Coventry issued blue bordered badges (surely SRN) to successful SEN's.

Will.
