Has anyone else had the random test invitation in the post?

It seems like the COVID equivalent of the spot check tbh - it's a random sample. The thing that's concerning me is you register for the test, the test comes, a courier picks it up and bob's your Auntie Flo. A week later, you get your results.
I have no reason to think I have it, I'm a LA administrator working from home, I have no symptoms. I'm also a carer for my mum. It's what I do if it comes back positive? I can't find any guidance on this - after a week plus in which I (theoretically) was contagious and asymptomatic? Because it's a bit bloody late to start self-isolating then, isn't it?

I have one of these letters, I've agreed to the testing but I've already been tested when taken into hospital a few weeks ago.. I'm pregnant and furloughed so pretty isolated at the minute so I think it's a bit of a waste to have 2 tests in 2 weeks but oh well!
