You don’t sound like you’ve worn that well yourself much like the rest of us! :laugh: The passing years and stresses of life doesn’t do anyone any favours!
I agree Mo , but there is one among us who becomes more awesome as the years pass , he possesses super human powers . I speak of the man from Poshshire the Mighty Drago :notworthy:.......:laugh:.

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
Prescription dropped off at the quacks. The roads are surprisingly empty today. It was the same on Friday when I went shopping. Hardly any traffic on the roads not that I'm complaining mind you:laugh:.

We also have sun and warmth. It feels lovely. Off to finish the teddy bear. I just have to sew his head on and he is finished.

MrsD is getting prepared for a full scan. The Doc is looking for cancer.
I think they have to eliminate all usual suspects before confirming what I believe it is ie long covid.
Strange......2 Doctors and a paramedic all said kong covid but its difficult for them.

Puzzle game procrastinator!
I am...



... back from jab-central. My appointment was 09:40, and I was done and my card stamped by 09:43 - it was very well organised!

I got the AZ vaccine. They asked me if I was going to drive home afterwards. (I was wearing a cycling helmet at the time... :laugh:) I was told that they required a 15 minute post-jab wait for drivers but they didn't know the 'rules' for cyclists. I told them that I would be spending the next 15 minutes at the adjacent Lidl store so I'd take my chances. :okay:

For those yet to be done who are worried about such matters, on the SNW* scale I would rate the jab at approximately 0.06 HM2BP** units, so nothing to even contemplate worrying about. Obviously, over the next few days I will be groaning and talking about my near-fatal reaction to the vaccine but at the moment I can barely tell which arm it was done in***.

I dropped my shopping bag off and was going to add about 15 km to my ride but forgot to pick up my spares/tools bag and I got 5 minutes down the road before I realised. It would be just my luck to puncture an hour's walk from home so I turned back. I thought I might just do a few laps of the park instead but 1 lap of that was enough - there were lots of people out walking dogs and small children so I gave up and came home.

Lack of sleep is catching up with me now so I'm having some breakfast then I'll have a nap. If I perk up later I may go out for another little ride but TBH I have quite a few things to do so I probably won't.


* SNW = Standardised Needlephobic Wimp
** HM2BP = Highland Midge/Hellenic Mosquito Bite Pain

PS *** It is 90 minutes since the jab and I am now getting a tingle in my jabbed left arm. There might be something to moan about in a few hours time after all. ^_^
