As long as people get the second jab within 12 weeks it doesn't really matter does it?
That is exactly what I was about to reply with. You've saved me the trouble.I do understand that, and I probably would have been like that a few years ago, but now I'm of the opinion that I don't care who gets it, lets just get it in the arms,
It's certainly going in the arms at a rate today. Kingston was very busy, a queue of about 20 outside, although not taking long to get inside. Very well organised, cannot fault.I do understand that, and I probably would have been like that a few years ago, but now I'm of the opinion that I don't care who gets it, lets just get it in the arms,
Yep, they're on 12 hour days for the next few weeks. My shift starts at 7.45 on Sunday. zzzzzIt's certainly going in the arms at a rate today. Kingston was very busy, a queue of about 20 outside, although not taking long to get inside. Very well organised, cannot fault.
I put this on Facebook earlier as I was pondering the last year. This last year has actually been really really good for me, and I wonder for how many others?
Thursday 19th March 2020 was my last working day in the office. I've learnt lots about myself this last year, not least that working from home actually really works for me, I've gone from never doing it to enjoying it immensely. Not having to sit in a car for an hour and a half every day has allowed me to get a lot fitter, enjoy where I live more and spend time with Robin. I know I'm very lucky to live in a rural village, and not everyone has the opportunity to set up a 2 offices at home, have places to go outside and enjoy or only have a cat to interrupt their working day. However, the narrative is that we have had to hate this last year, that spending time in our homes and local areas is prison-like, but that's not the case for everyone, and certainly not for me. We've been taught that being successful is to be in the office/commuting as many hours as we can, and to be stressed all the time. If that's what normal has to be then I really don't want to go back to normal!
I'm also not known for my patience, and like everything planned and dates pre-booked for everything.Well obviously no, not in the grand scheme of things.
I’m not know for my patience and I do like a certain orderliness about things.
I thought exactly that when I heard the news.I see the French are allowing the AZ jab again but this time only for the over 55s. Talk about indecisive, previously the Macron Muppet had declared that it was not to be used by older people as it was totally ineffective.
Meanwhile, cases, hospitalisations and deaths march ever upwards. You couldn't make this shit up
Me too. Tho to be honest, you'd never know there was anything wrong if Morrisons in Stone is owt go by. Went in this morning and it was rammed. No-one appeared to be social distancing, that's customers and staff. I got what I went in for and came home. Won't be going back there for quite a while.Listening on the radio earlier to discussion about whether we're behind or ahead of places like France (as in, will the trend that we have a spike after Europe continue) and it was mentioned that we don't have enough people yet vaccinated to prevent a third wave if we were to bin all restrictions tomorrow.
Not to be a pessimist but I really can't see life being anything like "normal" this summer. Like last year, which was fine, sure. But I have pretty much written this year off, too, in my head.
@FooFighter or @Lucy is there any way of getting lateral test kits to do at home, a few a week like the secondary school children have? There are so many people off at the moment, it would be so much easier in my job if I could get them to do at home?If you are at work with the general public, the recommendation is 2 tests per week.
Kingston is open 7 days a week
