Booked for No Time To Die on 30th September. Long time since I went to the cinema to see a Bond film.

Thank you. I'm not able to fully access the NHS app yet (it would upload my verification video) so I have asked for a written copy of the COVID pass, but not sure if that will arrive in time.

Anyone travelled to Spain recently? I'd like to know if the record card given when being jabbed here in the UK is accepted by the Spanish as proof of being vaccinated.

It is a proof of concept thing. This article has more info on how it works, and talks about 2 plants being built, 1 in Canada and 1 in Scotland, that will each remove amillion metric tons of carbon dioxide a year from the atmosphere:

Thanks, I'll check out that site. I think she would like the reassurance of having a card.

My partner applied under the EUSS scheme, and received an email in October 2019 saying she had received Limited Leave in the UK for 5 years. The online evidence to prove her status states that 'in due course' the online checking service will be available to landlords.

The email also had a letter attached explaining the decision and so on, which says "If you do not currently hold a biometric residence permit, you should receive your biometric residence card 2ithin seven working days". She never received a card, and asked me about a card last week; to be honest, I had not noticed what the letter said about this. Are you saying that the government decided not to issue biometric cards?

I spent a lazy Saturday watching films on tv. Started with Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, very funny. Watched the Bourne Legacy for the 2nd or 3rd time, better than I remembered but still only so-so. Then Death Wish. Hang on, that creepy guy looks a bit like...No, it can't be...Fuck, it is. Jeff Goldblum!

The stable owner who owned the horse she won her previous medals with sold it to a stud farm for £20m after Rio.

Where did you get that information? The horse she rode to win in 2012 and 2016 is a gelding, so not that valuable to a stud farm.

There are more recent figures here https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/eu-settlement-scheme-quarterly-statistics-march-2021/eu-settlement-scheme-quarterly-statistics-march-2021

'As seen in Figure 1, as of 31 March 2021, just over 5.3 million (5,301,470) applications had been received, with 90% received in England, 5% in Scotland, 2% in Wales and 2% in Northern Ireland. Since the launch of the scheme, October 2019 saw the highest number of applications received (591,580) and the highest number of concluded applications (401,480).

Just under 5 million (4,977,740) applications had been concluded up to 31 March 2021.

Of the concluded outcomes, 53% (2,623,720) were granted settled status, 44% (2,173,270) were granted pre-settled status and 3% had other outcomes (including 55,950 refused applications, 60,170 withdrawn or void applications, and 64,580 invalid applications).'

UCLH is looking for volunteers for stage 2 of a study comparing COVID-19 Vaccine Schedule Combinations:

"If you are aged 50 years and over, and have received only one dose of COVID-19 vaccine
from the NHS vaccine programme so far, then you may be eligible to take part in the study."

Hmm...Got a text this evening saying that 'Due to vaccine supply considerations, your COVID-19 vaccination appointment has been changed.' Was supposed to have second jab on May 10th, now moved to this Monday April 12th.

C'mon, apparently the guy can't even afford a pair of socks.

Had my 1st vaccine shot (Oxford/Astrazeneca) about 3 hours. Very slight headache but no other side effects so far.

Mentioned earlier in the thread that I thought I was in priority group 6, so hadn't expected to receive the vaccine for several more weeks. However, got an email today saying that research commissioned by the Chief Medical Officer had identified people who may be at increased risk of becoming seriously unwell from coronavirus, and to ensure early vaccination I'd been included in the list of people who are clinically extremely vulnerable. Advised to shield until 31st March...

Big day today, so a big watch to match.

To me this doesn't feel right.

You want to ignore travel restrictions in the UK, France, the Netherlands and possible Belgium as well, during a pandemic. On top of that you want to evade import duties, and want advice on finding a loophole. How unfair that you cannot just do what you want!

There was a lot of concern about the South African variant spreading in Surrey, so that might be a factor for the vaccine roll out being quicker in Epsom. There is also a large Brazilian community in the area (my sister-in-law is originally from Brazil), so that might also be an influence.

I put my name forward a week ago for the UCLH over 50s study, where people might receive either the Pfizer or Oxford vaccines or both, but haven't heard back yet. The volunteer info says there might be several weeks before they get in touch, so although I'd like to take part, would be best for my own health to get the scheduled vaccination.

Maybe I am not as healthy as I thought!

I got a text today from Guy's and St Thomas' about booking for a Covid vaccination, which I've arranged for Thursday, with the second injection booked for early May. To be honest, I'm in the Priority 6 group, type 2 Diabetes, but wasn't expecting to receive an invite for several more weeks.

Interestingly, my sister-in-law also got a text today, also booking in for Thursday. She is approaching 50 years of age, and doesn't have any underling heath conditions, or at least none that I know of. She lives in Epsom, so maybe that has something to do with it...

No, sorry, have sold this.
