Thank you for all those giving support, delighted. Great to hear you have got your Mrs jab at last Bob . On reading your post it made me check my Mrs appointment and on the NHS, it's reading come and get your jab booking but we want the GP Hub one so rang the Drs receptionist who 2 weeks ago, we could not get a word in edgeways " Nothing to do with us, yes your down as Kalos's carer " Rang this morning and got a new receptionist who checked the system and told the wife " your not booked down as his carer " WHAT !! Grrr 👿 Had to go down to Drs with paperwork this morning , we were not happy bunnies after been told that the Mrs was registered on the system in the first place . Even the Manager of the jab centre had said the Mrs should have been done the same time as me . Now we have to wait a day for it all to go through the system . Hopefully it's sorted and should hear something soon . 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never mind Kalos, you're getting it sorted now, deep breaths, keep that BP down. Better late than never😊 Avril 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emam Posted February 23, 2021 #5338 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Just booked both vaccines as a carer. I was given a choice of the Arnison Centre in Durham, the Nightingale centre in Washington or somewhere in Harrogate. I chose the Nightingale one. Just thinking while typing this the Harrogate one would have been a nice ride out (as long as I wasn't driving). So I believe any carers can now book online. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ann141 Posted February 23, 2021 #5348 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Its lovely to read that quite a lot of people in this group (or their daughters) have now got a date for their vaccine. 🙂 If Graham or Pauline are reading this, I hope and pray that all goes well with your eye appointment and vaccine tomorrow Graham 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beckett Posted February 24, 2021 #5349 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Just having a catchup with all the news. I've had an additional 2 days off as wasn't very well (not Covid!) but all good now and back to work today. Well, it's all got a bit spikey on some of the threads hasn't it? It's been a better read than my current book I can tell you! Firstly congrats to all who have got, or are getting their vaccines soon. Special warm wishes to Avril and Annie whose daughters have heard - great news. Secondly, can someone please tell me what Graham did wrong? I didn't quite understand from Pauline's post why he's not allowed a presence on here. Has he been arrested for murder? Or armed robbery? He seems such a lovely guy too. Finally, news from my vaccine hub is that we are only getting a trickle of the amount we were expecting this week, so can only vaccinate on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday morning. Not sure what's happening with the groupings but I'm told we're inviting 40-49s with underlying. As I've been reading a lot of the excitement about the Roadmap, I would add a note of caution in that a lot may depend on the rollout and our ability to continue without a full and regular supply. Fingers crossed for holidays this year - with a slight reservation. Have a good day everyone. Best wishes. Jane.x 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are quite strict rules on CC about what you can and cannot say, and if it has been decided that you may, even inadvertently, have transgressed the ruies, you are given a "time out". Discussion of this whole subject is discouraged, so you rarely find out the full details. Sorry, I can't say more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
