Haircut, No Problem, Metro No Problem Either

[Bobbisox1]

Quite quiet in fact but I only went to two shops on the outer edge, Wilkos for Lola's Winalot pouches and the Card factory to return a 'luxury ' box of Christmas cards that their inside verses were all upside down, got faced with a woman that was a bit stroppy " Do you want another box? Me: No thanks, I've posted all my cards now," Do you have your receipt . Me : err No, I didn't think I'd have to ever return Christmas cards,
I grudgingly got my £3-99 back when she called a manager :0)

But still a happy bunny :))))

indeed, hair done, can leave that now till another few months.

[emmie]

though hairdresser and his wife said they were concerned about having the vaccine, and i think a lot of people may be the same, have reservations that is

[Bobbisox1]

Strangely enough mine said the same Emmie , he's only 40 and he said he and his husband were very unsure but it's an individual choice to make

[emmie]

it is, they are well into their seventies, and only this year had the flu jab. No adverse effects but can see its going to take some people time to get their heads round this new vaccine.

[emmie]

they wonder if the vaccine will bring on the covid 19 symptoms, as some people who have had the flu vaccine went onto to get the flu, if you get what i mean

[Bobbisox1]

Two sections of people won't get it
Under 16s and pregnant women

[Bobbisox1]

I'm 74 but have no underlying health problems

[emmie]

im 66 almost and do have.

[emmie]

but we shall see when this is available to all.

[Bobbisox1]

Absolutely :)

[emmie]

i confess i am reticent, don;t have the flu jab when its been offered but this could be different.

[Bobbisox1]

I've had the flu jab the pneumonia jab and the Shingles one so the Covid one hopefully will complete it

[emmie]

apart from this year, in the last month where i fell pray to some bug
and felt unwell for over two weeks haven't had a cold,sniffle for years.

[Bobbisox1]

Me either, I hope we are not tempting fate :))

[ubasses]

Bobbi, at 74 you will be cat 4. BBC site says over 70 and those vulnerable. Mr U will be in 4 but I will be in 5 so hope there is not too long between us receiving them, so we can get on with life.

[emmie]

I have had the flu in the long distant past, but certainly not in the last 15 years or more.

[Bobbisox1]

Arh yes ubasses, I've just looked and there's a full stop on cat.4 thanks
