kirton Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 I've got to duck out of this weekend; after 2 years Mrs K and I finally copped a dose of Covid, not that unexpected having spend a week in a coach with 40 others. Fortunately we got the current low strength version but we are left feeling weary even after a good night's sleep; not a good basis for a 300 mile drive each way in high temperatures. Being old I had qualified for the fourth booster, and as with the first three suffered no ill effects. Mrs K not being quite as geriatric doesn't qualify for the fourth booster but having been classed as vulnerable got isssued with a special set of tests, got ill, tested positive and has been issued with anti viral tablets - couriered out from the big Exeter hospital as neither of us were fit to drive to collect them. Hope everyone has a good weekend and NO FTPs wuvvum, chaseracer, captain_70s and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's good they've finally admitted you to the proper authorities, but will you be fit enough for a weekend pass out this weekend, or are you fully out as well?

Whilst I can't nitrogen pressure-test a system, if the car holds vacuum for several hours, then it's a fairly good indicator that it's good-to-go. No charge for that! I have nitrogen test kit . If there is enough demand I could bring that too . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
