Haha unpaid carer mate To be honest though wouldn't have clicked on I was eligible before I saw this tweet.

You'll all be on your 4th jab by the time I get the nod! Only positive is it gives me time to check if any of you drop a 3rd testicle or sprout a 2nd head before I roll up my sleeve to take it lol

Last couple of months have been hard. Feels like living to work with little else thrown in apart from that derby win, which to be fair should be enough to keep me happy for a long time.

Really hoping they get the vaccinations down to 30 year olds so I can get away this summer but the way the past year has gone better to see that as a bonus rather than something to expect.

Rule of 6 kicks in on the 29th of March so try get something planned with friends to give you a boost. Me and my mates have organised a little BBQ even if it’s raining so we’ve got something to look forward to.

Drinks on the beach, that’s my plan I have agreed with my workfriends. As long as it don’t rain!.

Can vary from person to person but they're also saying that people who are used to having the flu jab are coming off with little in the way of feeling crappy or whatever than people who aren't (for example, my dad gets a jab every year and has done for 5 years now - he felt nothing. My mate, who's never had a flu jab, but is 24, felt crap for a day. His gran, jabbed up like a junkie - absolutely fine). But sure it varies from person to person.

Think it was @Neiler in here who said he felt fine after Pfizer jab 1, but then jab 2 knocked him for six.

Hang in there mate and like @Nymzee says, get yourself something to look forward to. Whether that be a catch up with your mates or a little bbq with family.

We've all come so far and now is the last stretch before we get a little more room to manoeuvre. As soon as restrictions are lifted I'm going to my sisters garden ( I've seen her once in a year ) and getting bladdered with her. She's had covid twice and I've had it once and I don't care if I piss my pants cos I can't use her toilet, I'm getting bladdered one night on the garden with her.

Then I'll go and do the same with my other 2 sisters and then finally hopefully I can see my mum properly and then my mates.

I'll be the greatest socially distanced son, brother, husband, mate, father this planet has ever seen

What role could vaccine passports play in the pandemic?

Several countries are rolling out vaccine passport schemes for those inoculated against the coronavirus.

Had my 1st jab (AZ) at 10am yesterday, started feeling unwell about 3am this morning.

Hopefully, in 24 hours, it will have cleared up

Not necessarily. Two people I know had reactions within hours.

I just felt a little prick.

Oi, @roydo, you been battered by chills, shakes, headaches, bodyaches, the lot too?

I was fine until 2AM, thought I'd got away with it, and then kablamo.

Thats not cool mate.

Sorry to say, so far, not a scintilla of anything.

But when are you getting your jab?

That was my experience mate, Pfizer dose 1, no side effects at all, dose 2 about 12 hours later over night, nausea, headaches, fatigue, basically two days were a wipe out and slept for most of it.
