Good Luck with that!  :( Once I realised how much Wild Garlic spreads and 'overpowers' the smaller spring plants, I tried digging it out, but... seeing as I am NOT going to use weedkiller, reckon I am stuck with the stuff!  :(

With regard to the Covid vacs. Ma, (88), had hers mid Jan...Pfizzer. Now, several weeks on,...  and, IT MAY NOT BE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE JAB... could just be Her degeneration, but, she has largely ceased to 'make effort' in several ways. Possibly a 'tiredness' side effect? Maybe it will pass...   :(

What is CERTAIN, is that vaccination is essential if Covid is to be contained... it will never be 'eradicated'. Very glad to see that 'poorer' nations are now receiving some supplies... but I rather think that whatever they CAN do will be a 'drop in a bucket', given World population. What 'developed' countries CAN do is try to stamp on the thing, hard in their control province... then help others.

It'll just be me, tomorrow.

Von's re-booked hers for next Thursday......Annoyingly in 'the other' surgery belonging to the practice. That one's 10 miles away, instead of the mile and a bit for me tomorrow.

At least Von's feeling better now.....Just rather battered from all the puking.

Cheers - Phil

Von's feeling an awful lot better......Thanks, chaps ! :)

BUT.... reading the possible side effects, it was probably the right thing to do to cancel her jab.

Very efficient down at the surgery......Bloomin' heck... it was almost like being back at school, waiting for the TB jab.....Light speed, or what ?

I think my left arm is so bloody used to having jabs.....I genuinely didn't feel a thing*.

Cheers - Phil (* No sense...no feeling !) :P

The injection completely painless, but my shoulder has been very sore for the past few days, which is a pain as the want to put it in the left shoulder, so everyone is the same (they didn't for our son :-) but I'm left handed, so a tad awkward! Also still feeling a bit tired and more breathless than normal, but getting better I think.

At least there's strong evidence for higher IQs on the part of southpaws, so you can feel like a martyr to brainpower. ;)

Arm vacs.. 'Better Red than Dead!  ;)

As an aside: Have READ abut inoculations administered to the buttocks. WHY? Apart from the usual military 'sadism'?  ;D

It really was so painless.....

Only (recentish) jab I've had that 'hurt' was the pneumonia one.....That gave me a slightly sore arm for three or four days.

No idea.....I did get jabbed there, once.......must be over 40 years ago....When I had a really evil stomach bug, and the Doc made a house call.....I'm fairly sure the jab was some sort of painkiller.
I assume it's something to do with getting the injection into a larger muscle mass than your arm. :-\ ......Perhaps it works faster ?
