NB Please don’t take this too seriously- it depends what vaccine delivery speed and uptake you estimate so it’s not written in stone.

If we maintain that average we would be pretty much spot on 15 million for 15th reporting

@Truelymadlydeeplysomeonesmum it’s so hard not to over think especially when not at work. I’ve lots of leave to take but I find being away from work more stressful than being there atm I’m hoping for a sunny optimistic March 😊 I’ll take leave then.
@TJ17 I was going to post the pic but not sure in the spirit of the thread !

@tootyfruitypickle

Website still says you need a letter !
My Dad booked through it last week, had vaccine this week, still not letter so they’re obviously delayed somewhere...

Pomegranatespompom · 05/02/2021 17:53

Truelymadlydeeplysomeonesmum · 05/02/2021 17:55

Pom you are making be laugh at your embarrassment for liking it 😂😂😂

We are all allowed to be a bit naughty some times and that is mild😉

Pomegranatespompom · 05/02/2021 18:02

It’s all my diversity training 🤣

Just had a text from GP surgery to say letters starting to go out to Cohort 5 from next week .
Am a little excited ...🥳🍾🥳🍾🥳🍾 !!

Truelymadlydeeplysomeonesmum · 05/02/2021 18:16

Group 5 age 65+ Doing very well there then🥳

Teacher vs parents tango still going on out there. It was lovely for a few days this week like a truce had happened. The media seems to have started everyone off again or something.

Pomegranatespompom · 05/02/2021 18:22

Wonder if it’s partly as we are nearing the announcement time re schools? If you had a bias, now that’s the time to try and get people on side - although some posters seem to alienate...

sometimesamazinggrace · 05/02/2021 18:24

Placemarking and eagerly await North East group 5 announcement...

MadisonAvenue · 05/02/2021 18:26

I love that meme 😂

That’s excellent news Yiayoula!
