Haha finally! I especially like that it has "Euro" on it. Much like, but opposite to companies called "ISS" or "ISIS" a few years ago, it is quite fortuitous!

Now who can crochet or whatever it is?

If we can choose titles (and align to SoA obviously) then I'd like either Sgt at Arms or Enforcer.

Yes!!! I can see paradise! But someone's locked the f***ing gates again.  >:(

It looked like this, this afternoon. Not a single virus in sight:

I have been this morning to have the Pfizer vaccination, a very slick procedure, I can feel the antibodies rushing around my bloodstream already  :winkthumbs:

Apparently, everyone on my postal round who had the Ox A-Z jab has had side effects. Everyone I knkw who has had the Pfizer one has had none so you may be 'lucky'  :)

being involved in a lot of NHS virtual meetings, there's a fair bit of "compare your side effects" discussion. Anecdotal evidence suggests that neither is better or worse than the other. Whichever jab you have, most appear to be OK but some have some noticeable side effects.
Correct rear brake use is scientifically proven to shorten stopping distances in EVERY road situation.

Interesting. Lot of anecdotal stuff as you say, like the "covid toe" and various other stuff the internets say are symptoms of covid.

Will be good to hear how it goes anyway, especially from your side David! My mother has a buggered immune system thanks to those jabs in the 70s for dealing with hayfever that instead killed a bunch and messed everyone else up. So she's waiting to hear what the doctors suggest. She's allergic to pretty much every medicine and half the food in the world!

Here in Normanton there is a clinic next Wednesday and another on Friday week, by which time Melanie tells me they will be down to the 50+s  :thumbsup:

Not far off - about 430k per day, when averaged. It climbs through the week, which I suspect is a lag effect from the previous weekend's figures being delivered late.

It's been just over a week since I had my vaccine and apart from a slight discomfort around the injection sight after a few hours I have had no side effects whatsoever.  :thumbsup:
