vulgalour Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 That's me booked in for the Covid vaccination. Turns out I'm eligible due to a pre-existing health condition, they've just not specified which one. I'm not sure which conspiracy theory outcome to expect, but I'm hoping I get the one that turns you into a crocodile, that sounds fun. Failing that, a superpower of some sort would be handy.

tommotech Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 13 hours ago, tommotech said: MOT day for the Alfa 147 and the Dispatch van today. The van will most likely go up for sale with full ticket, fleet reduction needed as I have a new van project. Updates later. So the Alfa threw up an ABS / ESP fault during the test and needs a small patch on the RH rear sill, whilst I’d checked for corrosion I didn’t push / force as hard as the tester. Either way it needs welding. In terms of the brakes the stop lights don’t illuminate every time when the pedal is pressed and there is an error code for brake light circuit - new switch on order. In a common theme the van also failed on welding, also RH rear sill, something that needs doing and worse than I’d imagined when the plasticised skin was ground back. I’d already welded a small patch on the RH front inner chassis rigger so a little more welding isn’t a biggy. On a positive note I get my COVID vaccine on Sunday, although I hate injections so maybe not all positive...............

It takes but a second or two and is hardly noticeable, I had mine mid January and as yet no extra limbs have grown so I'm sure you will be fine Twiggy and tommotech 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mate had the same. He rang up to find out what condition he had that meant he was bumped up the list but the girl on the phone said they couldn't tell him due to some sort of data protection issue about telling people about their own illnesses. I've obviously told eveyone he's got AIDS. BorniteIdentity, Tickman, barefoot and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to the doctor’s for something once and they started asking me questions about how I was coping with my COPD... I was like... eh? I then had to take several tests to prove to the doctors I didn’t have COPD!
