Our session tonight was to help out at the vaccine Centre as they had added in a slot that was perfectly timed for us!

However, with the high rate in Covid numbers over the Christmas period, many people have been unable to attend their booster shots, therefore the shifts have been very quiet.

Having had the heads up that it may be a slow slog we decided to still come in and see if the center needed any other help, then had a back up plan of litter picking if it all went Pete Tong!

Shot in the arm .. and your to blame … you give love a bad name

Surprisingly there was a steady flow of people wanting their shot of medicine. We had young guns to overseas residents to those just coming in for numero uno.

Whilst Ramneek (welcome back for your second task), Abdulaziz and I worked the front door we had Pam Nisha and Sandy strutting their stuff in the observation area.

The 90 minutes flew by tonight. Well done to everyone for giving your blue Monday a purpose and helping others to #getvaccinated

Next week we are over in Britwell helping out at St Georges Church - hope to see you there
