Had to go today because one of sons football team mates has tested positive, so everyone in the team has to be tested - he can't go to blinking school tomorrow now.
Anyway, the Uk system is a shambles, you're supposed to book online to go to a test center but it said no availability, try again later. In the meantime he spoke to one of his friends who said you can just turn up, they're expecting us all.
So, got there and walked in and.... there was not a single soul in the place being tested - about 20 or 30 staff stood about and not a single patient. So I said it's very quiet in here, and the girl said yeah we can't understand it we've been on shift for nearly 12 hours and the only people who've been is you football lot.
I said do you think it's anything to do with the system saying there's no availability? They didn't have a clue, but hadn't thought something must be wrong.
Anyway, the test isn't so bad you stick a long cotton swab thing down your throat til you gag, then stick it up your nose to the back.
Bit uncomfortable but bearable, results are 24 hours to 48 hours, and since they'd not tested anyone today I'll hopefully get them back quicker.
