Tom Jones second jab at 80
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-55864846

How many over 80s in Wales have received 2nd jab, or first?

Where does it say he got his jabs in Wales as you imply?

I have a several relatives here in England who've had both jabs, with two of them being under 80.

Isn't he living in London?

So why link to the story?
It has nothing to do with your question!

Doesnt it have everything to do with the questions raised in this thread about vaccine rollout in Wales?

I'm loving it today. Strikes me people have started to listen? Last weekend the car park at Crafnant was full. Today, on a bike ride with my 9 year old it was empty. We flew home down the lane and met one vehicle, our farmer pal.
Everyone I know now knows of someone that has died well before their time. For me, a fit, active 57 year old with zero 'underlying health issues'. RIP Bryn.

Nope roads still busy loads of people working unlike the first lockdown however suspect naff weather is putting of people going out at the weekend, but parks and scenic drives are still pretty busy. Oh and I don't know anyone that's died of covid or from it neither do I know anyone that's died that has died before their times.
Maybe us techs are a hardy bunch and covid wont come near us.

On another note big drop in cases this week well under 1000 cases a day and deaths continuing to fall. Caerphilly is back down to September levels along with most other areas in the south. North still being stubborn but it did in the first lockdown. Vaccine numbers still up and down but generally heading in the same direction.
Im a lot more confident this week than a few weeks ago. Still wont be till end of march till we get moved out of tier4/national lockdown. Lets see what the next few weeks bring.

From today - no idea whats going on in NI.

Trouble getting the drugs over the border?

Which is quite ironic as when I lived in Derry / Londonderry there were a group of very skillful delivery outfits who had no trouble getting drugs over the border (They did have other Troubles though....).

Unfortunately, not everyone is listening. North Wales Police reported stopping a car in Snowdonia this afternoon which had travelled up from London in breach of the restrictions.

Hanging's too good for them.

We should take them home and nail their door shut.

Presume you are talking about the NW police should be hung and locked at home with their incorrect attitude!

The poor person stopped could have reasonably being exercising for a future charity attempt on K2 and thus needed mountainness. Which there isn't much of in London.

Three times I got stopped driving to a Welsh power station last week from my base in England for work. Fortunately most Welsh police don't seem to understand "ffasgwyr" under ones breath, though one did grin and said "ste van your company has supplied you sir!".

Perhaps Police should seize the car as it's used in the commission of a crime and they can take public transport home. If they haven't got the fare, sell the car and take the fare from the proceeds.

Bloody hell, bunch of weirdos in here tonight. Hanging is too good for people in breach of coronavirus restrictions? Jesus wept.

Get off your high horses you bunch of sanctimonious, supercilious, curtain twitching losers.

My post was made with a slight tongue in cheek however, the rules are pretty clear. How long and what does it take for the message to finally get through to some people?

In England or Wales?

[Corvid-2020]

NE England. Don't know if they have "underlying health issues" as both very private about their health but I have noticed blood pressure pills in their house.

Pupils aged 3-7 returning to schools from 22nd February. It will be interesting to see what affect on the R rate this has.

Meanwhile "After criticism about a slower start, Wales is now vaccinating more people per head of population than other UK nations, based on a daily rolling average of first doses."

Some hopeful news for Spring/Summer.

Mass vaccination centres at Newtown, Llanelwedd and Bronllys I believe. Don't know if any residents are being sent over the border.
