Earlier, I unexpectedly got a text from my doctor with a link saying to book my second COVID jab.

I say unexpected as I already had my second one booked for next week at one of the big hubs, but I had a look at what was available and saw there were slots available all day Friday at the walk-in centre, which is a five-minute walk from my house. So, I changed my appointment. As interesting as it was to look around the Nightingale hospital last time, it makes sense to go somewhere much closer to home, and somewhere much less busy.

Today the men have been to fit the solar panel. They didn't come until after 2pm and I still don't know if they're finished or not. They've taken the ladder from the scaffolding and shut the gate to the garden, and they're nowhere in sight but they've left the loft hatch open and never actually said they were going, so I have no idea if they're done. I'm assuming yes but who knows?

It was a lovely warm day yesterday. Restrictions here atm are up to 6 people can meet outside, and it was so lovely to see so many people out in their gardens and having BBQs. One of my neighbour's little girl had turned 2 so she was having a party and I loved seeing how happy people looked being together. After dropping off the t-shirts to my niece and nephew, who both loved them, score one for Auntie Terri and Uncle James knowing about Roblox, and it was off to Newcastle to see the kidlet.

We had to hang outside in the street, which obviously wasn't the best place to catch up but that was fine, it's not like the shops were open and we were getting in the way of anyone. Corey thinks he'll be back at work from next week, doing table service at one of the pubs that has outside tables. Right now he says he's looking forward to it, and I'm sure he will after so long on furlough. It does mean his Criminal Minds binge watch will be slowed down, apparently, he's managed four seasons in about a week which is impressive.
