       I’m expecting a negative answer but has anyone heard of some channel that might allow me to buy a #COVID booster this autumn in the UK? I’m not afraid of death, but I’ve seen long CoVID close up and it’s not attractive. (I’m under 65.)

       Hmmm … looks like a quick trip to Ireland might be worthwhile. I’m over 50 and an Irish citizen so i qualify I think …

       Thanks to everyone who gave advice and ideas in response to my handwaving. It does look as though UK might have vaccine on sale sometime next year, but I might well look at getting it abroad sooner.

       @Kaetchi @kkarhan I agree; just looking to do the best I can with the situation I’ve got. Father-in-law is not planning to have a vax (even though he can) and I don’t want to be the guy who kills him.

       You’ve heard it said that you should be kind, for each person you meet is fighting battles you know nothing about. But there’s an extra lesson here, for when you see people achieving while you fail. They may well have assets you know nothing about.

       I’d like to go for a walk today as I think my body’s forgetting how to do that. Fingers crossed the weather cooperates. Finally got the hybrid’s number plates changed back from my private ones so now the car just needs a clean up before I look to trade it in for an electric.

       Just woke up from a depressive dream where I failed every task put to me by a friend who just wanted to prove to me that I was capable and valuable, thereby proving the opposite. I hate my brain sometimes. #Depression

       Just been trying to install software on #Ubuntu to write a new bootable USB from an ISO (because there’s a new version of Ubuntu itself out). Really difficult! There was an app in the store (which crashed when I tried to use it) and websites with things called Balena and PowerISO which I downloaded and couldn’t install (need to learn more). I was about to give up and do it with Windows when I found out the ISO-to-USB ability is baked into Ubuntu. Phew. But it highlights how much I need to learn.

       I’m on a weekend away with sone friends and some of them have had such charmed lives with wonderful things that have happened to them. Mine has been a collection of bad days and ok days. I know life isn’t fair but right now it really hits me how much I’ve missed out on by not being someone else.

       Depressed. Legs have been hurting when I go on long walks so I apparently appear to limp. Friends now pushing their favourite health fad on me. I’ve done most of these over the last thirty-five years. It’s hard to listen to and remain cheerful.

       As I enter the final leg of my career, I’m starting to feel “lazy”.  But I’m grappling with the concept that “lazy” might be a relative term rather than an absolute. I’m guessing people were told they were “lazy” when they didn’t want to work six-day weeks, wanted paid annual leave, and more recently when they wanted to work from home during Covid (by Rees-Mogg, in between his naps on the front bench). Just a thought to digest.
