Wasn’t being funny.
didn’t realise you had to book them. Just thought your GP text you when it’s your turn.

It’s a bit shit, you need to select locations for both jabs in order to complete the check-out process.

Found out a new location is now available, only 7 miles away so cancelled my initial booking and selected there for my first jab next Weds, but it wasn’t available for the second jab - closest was 55 miles away

Hoping I’ll be able to rearrange second jab location after getting first one next week.

I guess if your local GP has word of any spare they can give you a shout.

This. In Bristol you can just rock up to the hospital at the end of the day and get a jab. They have a number of no shows during the day and otherwise the vaccine is wasted. Just go asap and then the day before you leave.

Mate is this for reals? Which hospital, and where do you show up to?

What absolute tin foil hat bollocks.

Hmmm…. These seem to have aged well.

Hope everyone is ‘keeping safe’ still.

Be well.
