Thanks MA...tbh the ‘argument’ with AF is a reasonable one, and I’m only getting ‘slated’ by two others...one of whom, as you’ve had experience of yourself, often just likes to make ‘mischief’, and the other one of whom is too daft to take any notice of.

I’m watching Marr at the moment. Again the Mail is apparently delighting in making anti EU capital out of the vaccine. I just despair at the mixture of unhelpful triumphalism, nationalism and political selfishness - on all sides - that is ruining the vaccination process at the moment.

As an aside...things in the USA have seemed very quiet since Biden took over. As you know I have family over there including a son with an ‘underlying health issue’. He has had two jabs (both Pfizer) in the last month (exactly three weeks apart compared with our 12). I’m not holding the USA up as a role model to the rest of the World...it isn’t...but they do seem to be just getting on with it at the moment without any of the ludicrous ‘vaccine nationalism’.
