On the day that the PM was going to announce his plan for the exit route out of Lockdown in England, I drove over to Moulton to get my first vaccine jab.
All the Covid-related numbers seem to be pointing in the right direction, and the details behind the PM’s message were widely leaked before the official announcement first in The Commons and later on TV, at 7pm.
My ahead-of-schedule jab was made possible by a very under-promoted link on the NHS website (see below) that allowed pre-booking! I’m not quite sure WHY I was allowed to book before my official slot (group 7), but it seemed to work flawlessly, including the date for the follow-up jab too!

Arriving with around 10 minutes to spare, the setup was a picture of organisation. It was pretty-much impossible to go wrong in any way, given the excellent signposting and the number of people on duty. I was given the AstraZeneca flavour, and I didn’t feel a thing. Apparently, I might expect a sore arm and a headache as a side-effect later. So-far, so good!
Jab done! 😁
I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
