At lunchtime I had my seasonal Covid vaccination.

I don't seem to have posted about our previous attempt, when we were first notified that vaccinations were available, and we drove off to a clinic in Sunderland where drop in sessions were allegedly available. It turned out that the information on the internet was wrong, and you couldn''t just drop in (and no, we'd already discovered that there were no appointments to be had).

durham_rambler had his vaccination some weeks ago, from our GP, and his flu jab too, but I wasn't eligible for those. Then a letter arrived while we were away, inviting me to book an appointment, and I found one at a pharmacy in Sacriston - which turned out to be some sort of back office, a unit on an industrial estate, at the far end of a shed mostly occupied by a motor mechanic. Which was surreal, but the process was efficient and friendly.

So now I just have to sort out the flu jab...

Glad that's been done- we got both ours a little bit back.

"Back later, dear -- I'm off to the mechanic for a seasonal tuneup!" :-)

Bizarre that your GP didn't offer you both jabs together, especially as you have the same GP as D_R. Ours is offering both together, which must reduce processing time for them as well as for us.
