Everyone has to wait for 15 mins here although there was a lot of sneaking out early!

I expect every centre is different.
Its the same rules at our centre Boss, the only hold ups seem to be finding a parking space.

Same here, but its a 15 minute wait for everyone - they don't ask how you travelled.
I found it surreal - all these people sitting silently, spaced apart, staring at the clock on the far wall (or their phone). Suddenly, one would stand up and walk out and immediately a uniformed person would walk over and swab down their empty seat.
I'd play a game where I tried to guess who would be the next to walk out - usually one of the fidgeters, gathering all their belongings together, or putting on their coat.
I actually felt guilty when I left after 14 minutes. !!

For the second jab, I was in and out within 5 mins

I had my second AZ on the 7th it was such a non-event that I forgot to report back. I was prepared to feel poorly for a few days but I wasn't even rough for the evening like I was with the first. I couldn't get any sympathy no matter how hard I tried. We were told not to drive for 15 mins, whereas P had to sit down for 15, he had the Pfizer. I looked on the don't drive policy as an opportunity for a it of retail therapy.

Booked our first and second appointments today after a text a couple of days ago. Exciting times.

There are some here who say they have just had, or just notified about, getting their second jag, which I find quite surprising, I thought that the high priority was for all the old folk not just those in the homes

No queuing inside either, we are asked to arrive with less than 10 mins prior to jab. Park up and wait in the queue outside.(19-05-2021, 07:57 AM)Admin Wrote: Walking is fine here, you have to wait 15 mins if you are driving and encouraged to come alone.

You've been spoilt - standing queues outside here. For my first one, I queued in the snow!!
