You and me both......seeing how many peeps feel like garbage after having it

I watched something the other day that said the jab only offers you around a 20% chance of not getting flu anyhow......

I was the same til I was diagnosed with diabetes a couple of years ago, amazing how quickly you can get used to the idea of sticking needles in yourself. Thankfully I got it so well under control needles are a thing of the past now.

Used to have to stick a needle in my finger for a blood test four times a day, twice a day insulin injections. Diabetic clinic was seriously impressed with how I got it under control, off insulin and onto tablets last year. At the last review this year they said they don't want to see me again. Don't live like a monk, just be sensible.

Cool

Morning all.

Torrential rain here with a Yellow weather warning. Wish I had gone out yesterday to get the milk. But after cleaning the Bear and Banana then struggling in the high winds to get there covers on it sort of drained my strength.

Black tea it is then.
