Freecycle.
I like it because it brings out the best in people - kindness, generosity, environmental awareness etc..
I also like it because some of the drivel that people emit there is simply hilarious.

Have you ever wondered why Snoop Dogg sits strangely in those Just Eat ads?

Back in September one of my haematologists arranged for me to have what she called a "third COVID jab".
For some unfathomable reason, that "third" jab has gone on my GP record as having been a "booster" jab.
Now I'm reading NHS articles about having a "vaccine 3rd dose" (https://www.nhs.uk/
So now we're utterly confused. Have I been double-jabbed and boosted, or triple-jabbed? If I'm called for another shot do I need to be specific about which one (AZ, Pfizer, Moderna, other)? Bearing in mind that my antibody response to my current three shots has been zilch, is it really worth me having another?
Common-sense says "have another jab, it might work". Common-sense also says "don't waste a jab that someone else might need"

Spring forward, Fall back.
Just a reminder that we turn the clocks back at the weekend.
I'll be turning ours back to 1940, to when the country had balls and teeth, rather than keeping it set to 2019 with the country at the mercy of overseas knobs with too much lip.
