I am now so demoralised I haven’t even bothered trying today! When you are eligible, do you still get the health care worker question, or does it go straight through?

Scissorsforthedrifter · 29/04/2021 11:42

I think from what I vaguely remember from booking my mum that it slips that question. I think it asked if she was CEV but she is so not sure if everyone gets that. I feel like we'll never find out 😂

If anyone is still struggling to book in Manchester, appointments at Sportcity for next week have just come up for me and managed to book both doses.

Been trying for the last couple of days for dh (I’m not quite eligible yet). Nothing at all in Norfolk available

A GP not far from me has been posting they still have slots for today for their patients age 31+, it is the second clinic they have done this week, whilst mine hasn’t done any! So frustrating

Scissorsforthedrifter · 29/04/2021 12:46

It's all so random!

Newname9 · 29/04/2021 12:47

So keen for mine - I'm 37 and in Sussex - they seem to be doing 42 upwards at my gp surgery now

@Sunshinelover2

Age 32, had Pfizer in Cardiff on Sunday. Husband, 33, booked for Astra on Saturday.
Wow. Steaming ahead. Lucky you

My GP hub is doing a drop in! For the 9 priority groups though 😂 😂 😂

Thanks @CamdenLurker glad you are booked, just tried and no luck for me or DH both 1980

Marjoriesdoor · 29/04/2021 14:48

Had my first dose today - age 42, booked on Monday lunchtime. East Anglia. Had to drive nearly forty miles but I feel it’s worth it. Over two hours of driving (plus my normal journey to work) so planning a quiet evening. Very grateful to have my first dose ticked off. Lots of luck to those still trying to book.

Autumn101 · 29/04/2021 14:57

I’m in Sussex and 40 - had a message from my GP this morning and I’m booked in nearby on 10th May! Was surprised as they’ve been really encouraging people to use the big hub in Brighton via National booking

Is Ashton Gate doing Moderna?

Dailywalk · 29/04/2021 15:12

I’m booked! Not for two weeks but still...
Aug 1979

EasterIssland · 29/04/2021 15:14

@tulips27

Is Ashton Gate doing Moderna?
It was when it got released. No idea what they’re doing now tho
Eccle80 · 29/04/2021 15:14

@dailywalk yay! I will keep trying in hope if some later 1979s are getting booked!

MRex · 29/04/2021 15:17

1980 SW London - IN!!! Sadly nothing for miles around so will try again later for slots.

Scissorsforthedrifter · 29/04/2021 15:18

Not me yet either but maybe they're adding in date order again. I'm June 1980.

tulips27 · 29/04/2021 15:19

Yay @MRex, think you might be the first successful 1980 in the thread!

MRex · 29/04/2021 15:23

Ooooh, slots after all, booked him in
