All this talk of people driving miles to get their jab makes me glad I’m in a big city. First one was about 1.25 miles away and the second one will be < mile, so both very walkable.

I'm pleased for you KM, but my memories are of traffic fumes, 1,000's of people going in all directions, traffic jams and looking on the news demo's of all descriptions. Police brutality on Clapham Common!. For me a life of a country bumpkin, less traffic, country lanes, clean air, fields of crops, lambs with a few cows!

My Mrs had her jab two weeks ago, hardly been able to get out of bed, not been able to do the simplest of tasks for herself. So no change or side effects at all really 🤣

This last year has mostly been great on the pollution front. I found out last Spring that the sky is blue! Today was fabulous. We’ve got Richmond Park 2km away. No cows or sheep but plenty of deer. Re: the Clapham Common vigil, and the reason for it, I told my 3 daughters that you should be safe going out as long as there isn’t an off-duty copper around.

Had my jab yesterday, felt no side effects at all so far.

That’s good news Pete.
Just watching the news and people speculating about foreign holidays. I don’t know why the government just doesn’t ban it. We don’t want people bringing the virus, and especially new variants, back with them. Even if you have been vaccinated you still might be able to carry it even if you don’t get ill.
A simple firm rule will let everyone know where they stand and it’ll be beneficial to the wider British economy. I know the airline and travel booking industry will be bending the government’s ear, but their loss is someone else’s gain. And it’s be better for the environment.
We’ve come a long way, let’s not ruin it by being impatient for a bit of sun and cheap booze.

I'm with you, just ban all none essential foreign travel, food, and business use. The health of the nation should be the only thing that should matter to Boris, what's more, the UK travel tourism and hospitality can boom.
