Jab no 5, moderna no 2

Piss

I may have done the same, after an ill-advised bus trip to the out-of-town supermarket on Friday (the bus back was crowded with tourists and Spanish exchange students), but I have no tests to find out. I feel pretty bad, anyway.

please everyone be well soon

Post by **vom** » Tue Jul 12, 2022 1:32 pm

I'm down to the last box of free tests that I stockpiled and have had to spend actual money on more

I don't feel all that bad as present, just headache / blocked sinuses, but the test I did this morning turned positive REALLY quickly

Anyway fingers crossed it doesn't get much / any worse

Post by **blombluss** » Wed Jul 13, 2022 1:04 am

Oh balls! Get well soon, you two!

In a period of feeling OK-ish, I just had to wheel four big green bins out to the kerbside, because none of the other occupants of this 9-unit block of flats can be bothered.

The bins used to be zealously taken care of by one of the other ground-floor flats - as in, they'd be wheeled out far too early in the day and constitute an obstruction to the pavement - but the people involved have gone, or moved out, or died, or something. So now I appear to be the new bin fairy. I suspect a series of annoyed notes to my neighbours is in the offing.

I'm still potent enough to turn a test positive within 60 seconds apparently. Ugh. I've been forced into ordering a supermarket delivery for the first time ever, I hope they don't look at me

Post by **dng** » Wed Jul 20, 2022 9:44 am

blimey. maybe you have all the variants at once in some sort of super virus configuration

Post by **Bruce Sato** » Wed Jul 20, 2022 1:03 pm

Poor Vom

I seem to be OK now, as far as I can tell (still no tests). I might have been OK yesterday too, but the hell weather made it hard to tell.

Post by **vom** » Fri Jul 22, 2022 8:20 am

finally tested negative, hooray

although the cough shows no sign of leaving any time soon

Post by **blombluss** » Fri Jul 22, 2022 2:09 pm

Good to hear 'bout the negative test, Vom! *thumbs up*

Post by **dng** » Fri Jul 22, 2022 4:18 pm

yes. hooray. please don't cough too long

I had my fourth jab to-day whilst my Mom had her fifth. We both discovered that I'm not particularly good at piloting a wheelchair, and she felt safer walking!

Post by **Pual** » Wed Sep 14, 2022 7:20 pm

I’m getting stab 4 on sunday

Post by **blombluss** » Thu Sep 15, 2022 7:25 pm

Don't be surprised if you get:

a) headaches
b) uber fatigue
c) fever chills / sweats
d) muscle aches

cos we've both had these things.

Post by **Pual** » Thu Sep 15, 2022 7:46 pm

Oh dear although I was expecting it

Post by **blombluss** » Fri Sep 16, 2022 1:16 am

On the plus side, the worst of the symptoms now appear to have faded into the ether.

Post by **endar** » Fri Sep 16, 2022 5:03 pm

The transformation process is almost complete etc

Post by **blombluss** » Fri Sep 16, 2022 7:09 pm

Heh!

Post by **blombluss** » Fri Sep 16, 2022 7:11 pm

I hope I turn into a butterfly.

Stabbus Five set for next Saturday

Post by **blombluss** » Thu Oct 06, 2022 12:56 am

Stabbus Five sounds like an edgy remake of the classic Enid Blyton series.

Post by **endar** » Thu Oct 06, 2022 10:05 am

Enid Blyton was quite edgy as it was, I hear

Post by **blombluss** » Fri Oct 07, 2022 7:44 pm

I *think* it was in 'Five Go To Billycock Hill', that she had one of the five say the line: "All traitors deserve to die" (in reference to an aeroplane crash or summat), but the line was replaced/cut in reprints of the story.

Based on my visit to the boctorrs today...

Aren't doctors/nurses/office staff wearing masks anymore? And about 3/4 of the hoi polloi weren't, either.

Post by **dng** » Tue Oct 11, 2022 8:13 pm

its unpatriotic to wear masks

Post by **dng** » Tue Oct 11, 2022 8:14 pm

or do anything healthy at all

Post by **vom** » Tue Oct 11, 2022 8:41 pm

last time I went to the dentist the receptionist actually told me to take off my mask because "you don't have to do that any more"

I guess I would have had to remove it to allow access to my mouth anyway

but still I thought that was weird

That's why I wear mine (2 at once, in fact).

Agreed!

It's almost like it's all a load of bollocks and you can't trust anyone anywhere, whether it's media, corporate or government

Post by **blombluss** » Sat Nov 19, 2022 1:57 am

I was given a filthy look by a health professional after politely, but firmly insisting they wear a mask before enterin' chateau blombluss, a couple of days back.

Ah well!

Post by **blombluss** » Fri Sep 22, 2023 11:04 pm

I've got another jabbus at the local chemists tomorrow.

I'm weirdly nervous, for some reason that escapes me.

Post by **dng** » Fri Sep 22, 2023 11:11 pm

my parents are getting theirs tomorrow too.

Post by **dng** » Fri Sep 22, 2023 11:11 pm
