Hampshire’s in Level 4 from Boxing Day, up from Level 2. Who else has moved up?
I had my first vaccination today. We were heartened to see that most of the rest of the oldies creeping in from the car park were even older, slower and more decrepit than us. Very smooth organisation, though OH nearly failed to get his when he was foolish enough to confess that his recent anticoagulant Warfarin test result was a little higher than usual, but he managed to backtrack just in time.
My friend up the road got a sticker but I didn’t, even though I was a good girl and sat quietly for 15 minutes afterwards without passing out! I shall have to go back and have another go in three weeks, and ask for two stickers then.
 
Welcome to our world Marigold of Tier 4. it means you can go to the shops even they are closed, accidently bump into 6 friends who have gone to Costa at exactly the same time as you for a take away coffee. Wear a mask under your chin or just about over your mouth, remembering to pull it down to talk to a friend. That's where I work in Thurrock.
Glad vaccination went ok, but I am disgusted you didn't get a sweet, I would lie on the floor kicking and screaming next time until you get two stickers and a sweet.

And just remember to go wherever you please for Christmas day because the police won't be knocking on any doors. Don't decide to leave tier 4 though in unless you have access to the huge wealth needed to pay the £100 fine. I'm also glad to hear your appointment with the needle went well.
 
Yes, Marigold, demand your sticker! Didn't they give you a cup of tea and a biscuit?

We are moving up from level one to level three on Boxing Day. We are in the Outer Hebrides of course so what that really means is that the ferries will only be carrying freight and essential passengers. If any freight gets this far.
 
Same here of course Dianne. My so (significant other) is coming back in the New Year. He will be able to travel because he’s my carer (yeh, right). Even so it would be necessary for us to self isolate when he gets here because
a) we don’t want to infect anyone
b) the political consequences of bringing the disease here would be unpleasant.
I constantly update the things he needs to bring. But top of the list, after an earlier conversation here, is a decent selection of cheeses. Years ago he strawed down the back of his pick up and brought two Columbian Wyandotte cockerels but I haven’t got the cheek anymore!
 
Yes, Hen-Gen, as someone said to us earlier in the year - we live on an island so we're naturally self-isolating! I don't think we find it nearly as painful as those city people suddenly cut off from all their shops, bars and nightclubs.

Did you give your OH a list of cheeses or will he get what he can? Maybe he will surprise you with some cockerels again too? I'd like to hear what cheeses you got and your opinion (when you've eaten them, of course). I'm by no means a foodie but I do love my cheese.
 
I’m glad he’s coming for Christmas, HenGen. I remember you said earlier in the year that he wasn’t allowed to travel to the islands.
You could add to your list
c) we like it that way.
 
Oh bloody grand, a work colleague who thinks Covid doesn't exist it's all a big brother thing. Comes and stands next to me and John at work and says "my wife had a positive test on Wednesday, I have told her it's all in her mind" So now we have been packed off home to isolate for 10 days

Good grief, how irresponsible!!

I read last night about a guy in the US who lied about his (positive) test, and died on a plane, mid flight! And a paramedic who was on the flight and did cpr, has now tested positive. Criminal irresponsibility.

I do hope you don't get it. Hopefully you weren't close to him for long. He won't think it's all in the mind if he gets it. My ex-brother-in-law developed a "fluey feeling" and a bit of a headache ad because he was intending to see his son at Christmas he got tested. Now his wife has it as well and he says it definitely quite unpleasant.

At least you won't be exposed to all the other idiots wanting to get on buses.
 
Just think of OH who is now stuck with me over Christmas and New Year. I did have a face mask on as did the other person beside me
The person in question has since phoned work to demand to be let back, as it is all a conspiracy and the vaccine is just to insert a government tracking device into us all.
He has a smart phone which can pretty much do that anyway.
I will spend a lot of time making models, and generally creating mess
