An unusual side effect of “the vaccine”

I did need one

I've now bought a new hoover !

DH was just out of hospital when I went for my vaccination , so the long-term side effects have been slow to appear.

But this afternoon, while tidying my desk I came across a publishers catalogue and promptly ordered a book. I then remembered I wanted to order a book from another catalogue as a birthday present for DGS - and then looked through it further and ordered 3 more!!!

I bought a car, but that was something I really needed. Ann60, are you sure your vaccine wasn't supplied by that 'long river site'?

annsixty. shouldn't you report this side effect? ha ha

....had mine this morning....browsing online now....haha

M0nica what a lovely prize, bet you enjoyed it. I won a Bettys Hamper early last year,but changed it to vouchers, so waiting to go and spend them when things are open again.

Can't wait to go again as I live in Lancashire we go to one called The Woodland Spa, then upstairs tom Bertrams restaurant for lunch then back into the Spa. Lovely jubbly.

Would like to try Ribby Hall just outside Blackpool .

Maybe when I have my second jab I may be have an impulse to book one

I'm eyeing Gloria the robovac with suspicion now.

Yes I thought it was just me feeling more positive about the future. I had the jab 2 weeks ago and last month I had decided just to give my second small bathroom a lick of paint. Somehow in the last 2 weeks the old loo and lino have been ripped out, the replacements are presently waiting patiently to be installed by my clever OH and I am now contemplating some fancy new wallpaper. My £20 tin of paint is now about £250 and rising.

I don't want to be the one to burst your bubbles (see how I snuck a Covid pun in there? ?), but I am still waiting for my first jab, yet have recently started spending money like there's no tomorrow. And believe me, as a very tight careful Yorkshire girl, that is completely out of character for me ?

Yep, had jab Wednesday, so far: raised bed for the allotment, seed trays and inserts, more compost, more seeds (I’m a bugger for seeds), munch box delivered to son and I’m pricing getting the bits of rubbish cleared in the back garden...might need a new doorbell for the deliveries!

That is so spooky annsixty! I was looking at rotary dryers earlier, but I had my jabs 2 weeks ago. Mr. B has just returned from having his jab with a new wall mounted rotary clothes line that he picked up on the way home!

Oh, bikergran how I have missed my spa days, only 2 or 3 each year, but we love them.

My taste for spa days is entirely the fault of GN. I won a spa day for 2 in a GN competition, a year or two after GN was launched. DD and I went and, although we have been to others, the one GN gave me tickets for still remains my favourite

Our sitting room furniture is currently being reupholstered - paid for by the holidays we haven’t had/won’t have. Doing our bit for the economy.

There's no hope for me then. I get my first dose of the vaccine next week and I'm already spending!

I reckon you've had a chip and pin implanted.
Do you beep when you see a bar code?

PMSL thank you all.

Ohhh thank goodness it's effected someone else phewwww.

Had jab yesterday 16.10

Come 17.00 I had bought a lovely outdoor large lantern (£15.00 should have been £30)

Also some new tea/sugar/coffee canisters (had my other for must be 20 yrs) stainless steel so never aged.

Today spent almost £100 at my supermarket after work(cos it's double discount) normally only spend about £30!

Goodness know what will happen when I've had my second jab! I feel a spa day coming on

I’ve been doing this all through lockdown!!

I’m laughing reading this. Had my first vaccination yesterday and by the afternoon was searching for weekend breaks in the summer..we have not been out ( even food shopping) for a year!
OH said it was a chip they has implanted to make me change my ways ??

It's no doubt to do with the chip and the nano technology when we've all had it we'll be spending money like water. There may be further side effects in the future-watch out!!!
Raging grannies may return!

You see those who talked about microchips were right, those of us who disagreed are going to look like fools.

So that's how they're going to re boot the economy - sneaky, but ingenious.... ???
