davecttr Posted December 1, 2021 #28002 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Booster jab appointment today so moping around this morning waiting for a parcel that should have arrived yesterday. Hopefully they will have vaccine left when I get there and the place won't be mobbed by the sudden rush for jabs around here. Not surprising as Medway has been up to 10% behind the national average for vaccine take up. My local area is suffering a huge surge in infection as well. Received my revised booking confirmation from P&O with the applied shareholder benefit so now I have £300 to splash out on my cruise, and no excursions to pay for cos I have been on them all several times. Specialist nosh and booze the order of the day 🤑🥳 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplesea Posted December 1, 2021 #28003 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Hi all, Nice to see a post from Kalos, to bring a touch of humour to our day. Another very windy day down here. Have just looked out to our garden and next door's fence is down. It's blown down into his garden so not caused any damage in ours. It was wobbling well in storm Arwen but today's wind has bought it down! Have a good day and stay safe. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to reiterate that the whole procedure was completely painless, and I didn't need a single paracetamol following the operation. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terrierjohn Posted December 1, 2021 #28009 Share Posted December 1, 2021 (edited) My eldest son had his booster jab yesterday, the moderna vaccine. While he was waiting the compulsary 10 minutes, he browsed the internet and says he came across a comment from Moderna's CEO that they were uncertain their jab would be useful against omicron, made him wonder why he had bothered!

They generally say they can do it in a couple of weeks to get your business, then manage to find excuse after excuse as to why they have to delay, ending up taking 3 or 4 months in the end. We've never found that John, but I was referring to about 50 years ago, and the average repair jobs that Snowhill is having done. I didn't mean an extension, a new roof, a complete renovation or a new build😁 Avril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shortages I have read about are funfairs have a shortage of ghost trains , people are running out of them . Also it's getting harder to buy Advent calendars their days are numbered if you ask me Reading the papers and looking at the press photo's in the newspaper I see Chin masks are once again mandatory, suppose it keeps them warm . I hope Snow Hill gets the gates finished soon but as any of the Carpenters would tell you 🎶We've only just begun 🎶 .. I'm sure the gates will look fab when they are finished I must remember to get the Christmas cards written out and posted sometime Today. I surprised our postman last week by opening the door completely naked...... I’m not sure what surprised him most: my nudity, or the fact that I know where he lives. Well I hope you all keep smiling and stay safe ,take care everyone ......AND HE'S BACK !!!!!!!🤣🤣 Avril 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yorkshirephil Posted December 2, 2021 #28020 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Morning from sunny Yorkshire, a lovely crisp dry morning here but with one of those sneaky winds that blows right through you.

purplesea Posted December 2, 2021 #28021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Morning. Bright and sunny down here too although still windy and 9oC. The wind makes if feel a lot colder especially as it comes in straight off the sea! Meeting a friend later for our weekly get together over a cup of coffee.

Lucky Mrs YP, I dont think we have ever had more than a £25 win in over 25 years of owning premium bonds. But it is blue skies and sunshine here as well, and just had a Sainsbugs delivery.

ohnonotmeagain Posted December 2, 2021 #28025 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Early morning snow now melting here in south Norfolk. Been informed our vaccine hub will remain open for the forseeable future to accommadate Boris's plans [ we were due to close just before Christmas] We are a NHS staff only centre - flu and Covid boosters with an uptake of about 80% so far but will now open to the public [ Covid only] so I can carry on jabbing. Smug looking face........ finished Christams present shopping yesterday and have mostly done wrapping !!! Well my family live all over UK and I do have to post most of them ! Applying Yorkshire pudding recipe that I enquired about some time ago with "toad in the hole" tonight. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
