Turned up and the service was beyond superb! In and out in a flash plus 15 min post jab waiting time.

Whilst being jabbed (Pfizer Biontec) I asked the vaccinator. "My wife is with me. She is 70 in 9 weeks. Do you have leftover jabs due to No Shows etc"

Response "Not always but sometimes and we hate to waste any doses. Leave your phone number and hang around outside until 7pm which is our last appointment. No guarantees though and I will let you know either way."

7.10 pm phone rang and in SWMBO went. Job Done! So we are now in sync.

As she left the vaccination booth, the vaccinator said to the other staff "Where is XXXname? Two seconds later the evening contract cleaner (middle aged lady ) was taken in and she was also jabbed using the last dose of the day.. No wastage and another person vaccinated.

Its just great to see the dedication, enthusiasm and practicality of my local vaccination centre

So,,, if you are out of sync with your other half, it may be something to think about when booking a slot.


uplifting and heart warming story 👏
