A 'flu jab

I went to the doctor this morning for a 'flu jab:   I was sitting amongst about 50/60 people when I arrived and that number remained fairly constant as people came and went; but it was all very efficiently organised and I was out of there in less than 10 minutes.   Whatever short falls the NHS might have we are lucky to live in a country where we are offered at no immediate cost, protective treatment of this nature.
I hit the shops yesterday in search of a posh blouse, brightly coloured, with sleeves and a neck high enough not to show the world my ageing busoms.   Not easy, in fact almost impossible but after falling into a seat for a strong coffee and 15 minutes spent just staring at people, I found myself outside M and S and decided as a last resort on the way to the car and defeat to have a quick look.   Geronimo! after years of being let down by them I found the very thing I was looking for - bought it and went off in some high spirits.
