How was your day? (Random off topic chat)

What I sincerely hope is only hayfever has been sufficiently different to my usual symptoms for the last day or two to warrant a COVID test. Which meant I couldn't go to the Curve tonight for their season preview. To be honest, even if I'd had a negative result back already I'd have skipped it ... I couldn't take this cough into a theatre right now!

that's a relief! I do 2 lateral flow tests a week for work and i've had a sinus infection for almost 2 weeks and all my tests have come back negative, clear as a whistle. I think there's allergies and still come colds doing the rounds at the min. A lot of my office are sick but its just cold and infections theres no covid. The boss is v strict about covid measures and tests. Hence why I'm currently freezing cos I'm by an open window in this weather!!!

Just had my 2nd vaccination. Felt quite emotional afterwards. Have also made my first theatre booking this year which was for Jersey Boys. Unfortunately I have to wait until March next year to see it but it’s great that we’re getting back to some kind of normal.

Pubs and restaurants are finally able to allow people to eat and drink indoors. For the last month the weather has been miserable every weekend. The first weekend we have the choice to be inside the sun comes out. Thanks, weather.

Yep alternating between downpour, wind and occasional 5 mins of sun.

Well done Roxie on finally getting that jab.

Thanks! I feel fine, just a bit of a sore arm. The actual jab itself didn’t hurt, I don’t have a problem with needles, I was just wary cos one of my mates had hers last week and ended up really really poorly like off work. I’ve had Moderna though for some reason! I had to wait 15 mins after and been instructed to drink a lot tonight. Sadly she meant just water, not gin!!! 😜

Having a tiring day looking after my 2 year old niece in East London. Though the kids play areas are great having tried out a few of the rides myself! Hopefully I’ve got enough energy for this afternoons shows.

I went to B&Q for a screwdriver, and came back with a boot full of bedding plants as they all seemed to be half-price, looks like someone had over ordered!

I have nowhere to put them right now, but will have to work on that 🙂

I’ve had a lovely day. A friend I haven’t seen in ages sent me this in the post:

Ready for theatres to open again! I’m forever forgetting who I’ve seen in shows and what shows I’ve seen and when so it’s perfect! Thought I’d share here to you lovely lot.
Not posted on here for ages as it’s made me so sad to read about theatre I cannot see but this really brightened my day and gave me hope for the future!

Busy day at work. Loooooong meeting. Needed matchsticks for my eyes. Was thrilled that the sun actually came out this evening though and I was able to walk the dog in the fields.

I'm on a high

Currently in the middle of 11 days out of the office, combo of leave, toil, weekends and a Bank Holiday.

Spent a lovely 3 days with my folks we hadn't seen each other since Dec. We pottered around Hampstead Heath and Brighton in the rain.

Today, I booked Best of enemies and Wonderful Town and tomorrow I go go on camping (it up) trip to Kent.

Work on the 1st June will be difficult and I'll be less smug.
