Stonehedge-
Time will tell but it seems to have done. Really looking forward to finally getting back on a bike!
Got bored of waiting for our PCR test results and went to get tested again tonight.
Turns out the the answer to this
Went to get PCR tested with my partner and because I managed to accidentally leave him off the booking he booked separately. When we got there we were given two of those grey bags at the same time. They then scanned our barcodes after, but we can't work out how each testing kit will be allocated to the right person - any ideas?
Is that they're meant to rescan the bar code on your phone before scanning the test kit barcode at the end.
Except when we went on Friday they didn't do this, so those results are never going to arrive.
Seeing as they scan the bar code on your phone when you arrive, an obvious improvement would be linking a test kit to your at this point before they give you the test kit, no?
Then they'd only have to scan your bar code once too.

Don't be, best thing that happened to me for ages - over a year of unbearable sciatic pain went away pretty much overnight!
The surgeon found a hole in the lining around my spinal cord though which had been made by one of the discs entering the spinal canal and puncturing a hole in the lining. So that had to be patched up (with 'paper and glue' in his words, lol) then I had five nights of flat bed rest which was about as much fun as it sounds.
He also had to take that disc out, untangle the nerve from around it then put it back in again 😬
I'm very lucky I had such a skilled surgeon. Recovery was going great until I got covid! I was told at the post-op I was on track to recover as if the hole and bed rest stuff had never happened. I'd been walking an average of five miles a day since the operation and had built up to doing half an hour of pilates physio exercises for core strength too.
I'd been doing this for a month so was actually fitter than I'd been for ages (given I basically had to stop exercising) and I've lost 2kg since the op.
I reckon this is all helping now with the covid - the thing I'm most bothered about right now is that I can't leave the house for a walk for another eight days...
