    Had my appointment come through today so I'm booked in for Friday. My wife still hasn't had her's even though she is a year older. I don't know what decides the order they are being sent out.

    My letter came yesterday and I've booked in at the nearest hub which is Hathersage. I chose next Monday rather than the first opportunity which was Saturday because I want a decent run on Sunday!

    Apparently, if you ignore the letter or are unable to travel to a hub, you will be contacted by your GP a couple of days later and offered the jab at their surgery or somewhere more local.

    I also booked to have my second jab at the same place on 24th May.

    It seems the system is working for those with NHS numbers.

    I had mine a few weeks back at the little hospital in Bakewell. My wife go a letter this week and was initially offered appointments as far away as Manchester, on looking again today Sheffield Arena was available which she has now booked. Hathersage would be so much more convenient and I can't understand why this wasn't offered. Our GP (Baslow) is generally very good and I very much hope she gets a call from them with a more convenient location. It seems very hit and miss but whatever we will both take the best option offered and get our passports to freedom.

    I notice Hungary has approved the use of a Chinese vaccine, I think I might decline if I was to be offered this one.

    We are both registered with the same GP and I just got a link sent via SMS from them to book a time slot. I presume my wife's will turn up in the next few days

    There might be a letter winging its way to you both Pete. I've just got my letter today and once logged on to the site there was a choice of venues across the north-east and north-west. Soonest was this friday, but it means a trip to Lancaster (45 miles). Still, I quite fancy an excuse for a drive out. I also booked the second dose for the end of May, more locally.

    Mind you, I think there must be some sort of mistake though as it came with a leaflet entitled "... for older adults". That's certainly not me of course

    So if you had waited a few weeks, you could have waved to Llani Boy when you passed each other, you going south to Bakewell and he going north to Hathersage.
