Last thing I will be thinking of is a jab in the festive week it’s not happening anytime soon. So guys go out get yours done take my place I’m happy for you to do so. Happy Christmas

Wait......Jingle Jab!! Oh I’m done 🤦🏻‍♀️

To be fair I think they could have had a day off 🙄

Give it rest guys.

What after them basically saying omicron doesn't do anything to you they still expect people to be dumb enough to get boosters? 🤣

If the virus can tell the date and time why doesn't it take a couple of days off and give staff & volunteers a much deserved break...

I'll stick to my turkey and mince pies thanks

Wait until the tablets get rolled out.....

Please take a picture of you getting jabbed on Christmas Day so I know who to avoid.
