If I was registered I could - their system needed my NHS number which I didn't have at the time. I have now completed the request for online access , but I now have to visit the surgery to provide evidence of identity to be given the access code to complete the registration. While I'm there, it would be the most simple thing to book an appointment with the receptionists, but they're only accepting phone or online bookings...
The flu jabs for the over 50s are only being done on the 12th & 19th December so there's a slight chance I may be registered and booked before then.

Lucky B*stard!
I ended up getting cut off after just over 2 hours when they closed the surgery for 'mandatory GP training' according to a recorded message when I tried later on.

DHL just delivered a tea cosy. The guy on their local round is a cheerful guy called Charles. When I said to him that he's working late tonight he said people keep ordering stuff.
(Normally, Charles delivers a monthly selection of Northern Monk beers in the afternoon, now it's tea accessories after beer o'clock.)

Our online booking was turned off in first lockdown. But I can now see the flu jab appointment in my app. In and out in a minute according to the timings!

I am currently in negotiations about a mini-velo. They are so rare in these parts.

Suppose it works better if given in the gluteus maximus.I was just talking to a friend on the phone and she said that we will probably get a vaccine in the end !
I said that I usually have mine in my arm .

Part of the problem is that the surgery I was with near home closed down at the start of the year and all the patients were distributed among the (already overloaded) three in the Felixstowe & Walton area. Add in the requirements of the Covid regulations and an elderly local population and I think a beer is called for.
It's not all bad news 'though. I did stop off for an hour's natter and a laugh with my mum & stepdad on the way home from work.

Don't have any custard creams, but do have a spare slice of victoria sponge...

4 runners running up the road towards me, all wearing yellow vests/jackets, 2 of them had head torches on.
Amazing how easily they slipped back into the darkness, almost as if fluoro colours were ineffective at night
