      After over 30 years of superb service from the Surgery, I wouldn't have thought you'd have taken such an isolated incident by probably a new member of Staff, as being a major complaint in my post. I get irritated with something everyday but I do know the value of people and the Surgery. I value what past care and service I have had from the Surgery so i'm not a person who reacts negatively to every isolated glitch....I think the Surgery deserves better than that rather than looking for an opportunity to criticise them.

              I have to say, how thankful I am. I have kept members upto date with my Covid-19 jab etc.
              In fairness to all concerned, HM Gov etc. IMO. Yes perhaps some things could have been done differently. Please. Stop and give thought. This deadly virus hasn't just hit us Brits. The wholw world is in it's grips. Learning has, strange as the saying be. Have been made by mistakes.
              To me. This friendly gardening forum isn't just about gardens, and plants. I am no one of importance but, with due respects. I know my subject. Perhaps, over and above that. I really do have a strong affection for fellow mankind. Hence when reading members posts, I don't only get an insight to their gardening experience, trials and tribulations. I also get to know more about the individual, we all reveals so much about ourselves, often, unknowingly. I hold such knowledge with the greatest respect.
              Concerning how this dreadful virus has turned our lives upside down. I truly feel Blessed that I was offered the vaccination so quickly. Telling things as they were. I have tried to re-assure others who perhaps may be a bit nervous about the jab. Honestly. There is nothing to it. I could write a book all about me and Guy's Hospital. Truly. Such love and devotion by all the staff. Sorry. Mike is filling up. Nite nite, sleep tight and God Bless.

                Well I know sometimes I am on different planet as even Mr.W gets confused...the quote was what daughter sent us on facebook. She is a carer and still thinks her husband who caught it at this work place first gave it to her, but isolated like you would not believe, our twin Son was already bedridden for 5 days and felt terrible with his covid19, living away from his girlfriend and on his own that was hard for him and us of course,,yes ,takes it toll. We stay at home all the time except shopping or medical appointments....we know the risks.
                Thanks for the thoughts though..:blue thumb:

                      Just had a letter from NHS London, saying that i haven't had the flu jab this year, i have never had any form of letter from my Doc to say that i could have one, so i'm hoping that the doc hasn't been geting paid to give me one when i haven't never/had one, i'm fit for my age and i don't go to the doc's, last time i went was about 40 years for tretment when i got the run's bad and 5 years ago for a medical for a HGV lience update, i stay away from doc's, hospitals and pharmancys
