Sorry Boris, The System Won't Let Me.
Boris Johnson urges people to get jabbed ‘to be in strong position for Christmas’
https:/ /uk.new s.yahoo .com/bo ris-joh nson-bo oster-v accine- christm as-omic ron-184 343617. html
Fat chance - I've just made a booking on the first available date - 4th January.
Last time I tried a couple of weeks ago it wouldn't even let me book as it said it was too early to do so.
So, which is it ?
(a) Boris is lying again
(b) Boris hasn't got a clue
(c) He means Xmas 2022

To answer some of the responses :-
1. My local surgery failed to call me for Jab 1 (but informed me via answerphone not to call them). I eventually did call them and got the jab 15th March.
2. My local surgery failed once more to call me for Jab 2 (but informed me via answerphone not to call them). I eventually did call them and got the jab 24th June.
3. My local surgery failed to call me for Booster. I tried booking Booster online in October but was barred (until 24th December) from even booking. I tried again last week and got an appointment 4th January.
4. My local surgery did send me a flu jab reminder and I got mine successfully last week.
It would appear the fault is with the local surgery, how can I be on the flu jab register but not the Covid one in spite of reminding them on 2 occasions.
I am 79.
It does indeed appear to be a postcode lottery.
There are no walk-in places round here AFAIK.
Finally, thank you again for all the helpful responses, my delay in responding does not mean I'm not extremely grateful for them (except the trickle of snide ones - I guess you know who you are).

it works differently now, bobb, the wait is only three months. I don't know the science behind bringing it forward; it may be more the general eagerness to have everyone get a booster asap for winter.
However, Canary did his best to be proactive. He rang to enquire and got the answerphone message to go away. March was really quite late for a 79yo to be offered one - I had mine in January, April and early October, and I'm a good deal younger.
