Who'd have thought, this time of year having enjoyed such recent balmy and sunny weather we'd be shivering through snowfall today. The shift started in beautiful sunny weather, but within the hour, the sky got dark and down the snow came quite thickly to although not enough to lay. It wasn't long before the sun was out again thankfully. Today the team was Duncan on car park meet and greet, Emma on waiting room duty, Julia on the front door and Mel on the back gate. First things first on arrival, we were all trying to spot Sharron! Aka Jen's Mum. I got my first pick wrong going for the lady with the dark hair! John W then introduced her to everyone. Sharron has blonde hair and we couldn't see if she looks like Jen as she had her mask on! It was lovely to meet her and to say hello! The clinic decided to close the Marquee and back gate early because of the colder weather and also because the clinic wasn't very busy today with the Astra Zeneca/Oxford vaccine being used. Patients were in and out really quickly. This meant that Mel got to go home early leaving the rest of the gang to finish the shift.

I love combining exercise with doing good with Goodgym. Add to that, we are able to do it by the seaside and that's close to being perfect!
