It’s been frosty the last couple of mornings, it’s very welcome , hopefully it will kill a few bugs . Unfortunately the Maize and cover crops don’t like it and they will soon be unviable as a drive .

Your far better stav having itchy bollocks that catching COVID mate 

I know Dave and people are telling me to have it but if you’d  seen the pictures of my feet that I had to send to the doctor you’d understand why I’m a bit hesitant ( I can send you them if you want, put you right off your tea ?)

My mate who I work with is going for his second one now so it’s 50/50 if he makes it to work tomorrow 

I was Ill  the day after my first then ok but after a few days the the rash and itching started and I felt terrible, I was in bed for 3 days, my skin still isn’t right, the doctor said they don’t think it will happen with the second but I’m not sure I want to risk it 

Just got back from hospital, had some cortisone injections in me shoulder and apparently it messes with your immune system so I can’t have me second jab for at least a month..

one way to put it off?

I have had both jabs , but I had Pfizer, nothing more than an arm ache. I can understand not wanting to go through all that itching crap though , sounds grim  . I don’t think I’d have been up for a second dose , but the doc did say that it was unlikely to cause a bad reaction the second time .

I know it’s the right thing to do and I can handle feeling unwell for a couple of days but I can’t go through the skin thing again 

 

sod it, I’ll show you what my feet looked like last week ?

After I sent the pictures in they said “ come down now?” all they could do is give me antibiotics and treat them like burns, I’ll be able to start using a steroid cream next week to start repairing the skin ?it’s cost me about 150 quid in prescriptions and bandages, which is not good for a northern lad

That's horrendous mate. I've not had the jabs and wont be either. My natural antibodies will just have to protect me. Which jab did you have.
