it looks a bit like some brands of test pick up the current variant and some don’t. Would be keen to hear if this is what other people have noticed this too.
Yep when we had it in December (very mild, as @Stonehedge describes above) only one brand of test kit picked it up.
As he also says everyone should always assume you've got it if in doubt - statistically lots of false negatives but very few false positives is what you'd expect.
