A few weeks ago.

I never got round to getting them and now I think I do have Flu. Is it too late now to get the jabs?

If you had flu I'd hazard a guess you wouldn't be posting on here or doing Wordle. I don't suppose it's ever too late to have your jabs but I don't know. Give your surgery a ring.

I shouldn't bother Sandy.

I had mine done and was ill for three days afterwards.

Ten days ago I suffered a debilitating episode which laid me low for almost three days (most unusual for me) which was almost certainly some form of 'flu. Since then I've had a hacking cough which has meant I've had to postpone a couple of luncheon appoinments.

I won't be bothering next year.

You got one already, why fret about the rest ? Don't worry, be happy.

NJ. I refer you to Naomi's post above.

The editor of AB has assured me that the clinical test " I fink I 'ave dat flu I have. Foo!) is a poor clinical discriminator even amongst rabid ABers. That is in grand AB tradition those that say they have flu -- dont

so yeah turn up and get jibby-jabbed

Why did you "not get round to getting them"? Presumably you had an appointment & wasted it.

No. There was a walk-in service at my local pharmacy. No appointment was necessary.

o god walk in again

I was stymied by wrong kind of vaccine - but you know I knocked on the door until they got the right stuff ( they get paid, and it is all on a computer. I was pretty impressed)
