Off Topic Covid 19 restrictions have done one

We’re an island, Aus and NZ have no land borders, South Korea has one, but effectively no movement across it. I can see a common theme.

 

I’d love a classroom that size.l

 

Just booked my jab for Satdee, at the KC (Where else )

My appointments at 14:50, ten minutes before we play Oxford.

This has got me thinking...

After my jab, maybe if I took a wrong turn or two, I could sneak in and watch the game

 

So you having the Oxford jab...

 

If you had your photo put up in the stand you can hide behind it, might even work.

People round here can get a bit tetchy about calling it the "Oxford" vaccine. It was produced in conjunction with Astra Zeneca, whose corporate HQ is just up the road in Cambridge.

 

Sarah Gilbert might have something to say about that.

 

Take your boots you might get a game!

 

I keep getting offered Durham...


And Stockton...

And some backstreet chemist in Bishop Auckland...

And a Boots in Seaham...



And ****ing Carlisle!



And wherever I try to book is unavailable.



Yet the Missus has hers on Friday?



What's that about?

 

My missus is going to Elland Road for hers. Imagine, a Leeds United vaccine.

 

Have you pissed the NHS off at any time?

Ring your GP and tell them you're struggling with the booking and they can do it for you.

 

Apparently, part of the problem is that the computer system they use for booking is pretty naff. Initially it can show locations miles away, but if you keep clicking refresh, eventually a centre in a sensible location pops up, but then it lets you get right to the end of the process, but doesn't tell you that you're in a race with other people booking the same slot, so whoever gets to the end first gets it, and you have to start again.

Seemingly the trick is to go on at silly o'clock when others aren't around, find a centre that suits, and go for it, as there's less competition.

 

Tell your missus to cancel it and she can take my place at the KC on Satdee

 

I live in HU1 and got offered City Hall or Goole!!! ****ing Goole!!!

First jab on Thursday, second on June 1st.

Best of luck with your booking mate

 

I ended up trying to get round it by typing my location as the same as the vaccine centre, and it still offered me one over 50 miles away, and in a few weeks time. I stuck at it, and I've got one just round the corner from me for tomorrow.

 

Nice one.
It offered my flatmate City Hall or ****ing Grimsby . She's had her first one now.

 

This has been my experience Dutch.

The race to the end is one I just haven't won yet.


**** knows how anyone gets through the booking process faster than me though.

I don't even look at the questions any more.

The answers are all stored in my phone.



I'm like a blur of fast fingered swiping, selecting and submitting.



And every time I solicit the response 'There is a problem'.

 

I had the Astra vaccine. Pretty much instant dead arm which lasted a couple days, struggled to lift my arm up putting my jumper on etc. I was poorly for about 36 hours with flu like symptoms, which started 12 hours after getting the jab.
