Apparently, I'll be helping Von repair one of the sheds this afternoon. 

Cheers - Phil.

Sounds like it's under protest Phil. 

Well...I'm not the one who's going to be allowed to play with the new toy.

(An angle grinder, to cut through some corrugated iron sheets......But, thinking about that.....that's probably for the best, especially with my penchant for self mutilation. )

Cheers - Phil.

Good to hear Von is protecting you from yourself

In our house any power tool use is classed as a 'Blue' job.


Had our Covid Jabs today. All very efficient, they let us go in together despite our appointments being 20 mins apart. I think the times are jsut to stop them getting swamped.

Barely felt the needle.( I did not look)  Was unsure I had even had it.  I have no side effects (yet) Mrs Orcs had a headache and felt a bit 'Fluey' this evening.  But otherwise all ok.

Great news, Mark.

I was the same in regards to....."Did you really give me the injection ?"

Felt VERY slightly 'bruised' in the 'jab area' a couple of days later, but that was all.
Von had a slight reaction on her arm, a couple of days after her jab. Sore looking area which was slightly hot.
Again, nothing to 'write home about', though.

Cheers - Phil 

Did a day of testing yesterday at Halewood Acadamy - well organised and vey efficent. Results in about 15mins but left for 1/2 hr. One kid in tears but got the test (no it wasn't me) and one kid to;ld it was positive, but our test wasn't. That was a bit scary but we suspect it was a wrongly issued mobile no. Overall it was a good day.

Stay safe guys.

Stay safe guys.

Same from me......Stay safe, yourself, Ian.

With 'things' appearing to be going pretty well (or at least, encouraging)...I'm just hoping we don't start seeing too much of an increase, in the number of cases, as the 'lock downs' are relaxed.....and we go back to some sort of 'normality'.

Like I said a week or so ago, I'm going to continue to be somewhat paranoid, even after Von & I have had our second jabs.

Cheers - Phil 

Yep, we are remaining very cautious here too, even though my son and I have had our first jabs. With my wife back at school there is always the worry she may contract the virus or bring it home, but the H&S measure in place are very good, which is reassuring. Also she has to home test twice a week and submit the results to some NHS website it appears.

My sister's tested positive - in addition to the boyfriend's paralysis and the mastectomy a few days ago. If there's anything in the local karma nonsense, she must have been Hitler in her previous life.

She is, however, an asymptomatic carrier, he's on the mend, however slowly, and the cancer wasn't a serious as feared.

Well, fingers crossed for them both Alexander!

Likewise...

And from me, Alexander !

Cheers - Phil.

Thanks, all.

Best wishes on their recovery.

Mark
