Welcome to this week’s #PoCoLo - a friendly linky which I co-host with Suzanne, where you can link any post published in the last week. We know you’ll find some great posts to read, and maybe some new-to-you blogs too, so do pop over and visit some of the posts linked and share some of that love. If you were here last week it was great to have you along, if you’re new here this week we’re pleased you’re here.

This week something momentous happened, and my picture this week is a very big clue. During the week we both got a text to book our jabs. Being the doubters we are, and because we weren’t expecting it yet, neither of us clicked the link. But typing it into a browser, sure enough it was the invitation to book our first appointment.

The surgery phoned too and asked if we needed to book through them, so I felt the need to politely point out that we’re in the over 50s group, not senile. We’d already booked in any case - but trying to book two appointments close together proved fun.

It was very smooth and organised on the day though, and the worst of it was having to sit there for fifteen minutes afterwards. I suffered from complete itchy feet, especially as I had a meeting to get back to. I am turning into my dad though - driving straight out of the car park after spotting the pay and display requirements, to park around the corner for free. The weather was good so a less than five minute walk was also a bit of a bonus.

So a momentous day, and hopefully very much the beginning of the end.
