   Well fuck my day.
   Shingles again.
   Rest of day will be me & 111 chasing around trying to find a pharmacy with the right drugs. At the weekend.

     tbf, this is only the second time I've used them and both times they've been really quick. Unlike my actual GP surgery, where you can no longer speak to anyone but have to fill in a long repetitive online form (but only between 9am & 5pm) before they deign to offer you the possibility of an appointment sometime in the next 4-6 weeks.

     @botvolution Last time I rang 111 they said someone would call me back. By the time someone did, I’d been in hospital for 3 days.

     Well that was, um, "fun".
     A 35 mile round trip drive to the nearest pharmacy after ringing around to find one with meds in stock.

     tho tbh it was a nice winter's afternoon to drive round rural english country roads & then have a poke around some charity shops in a still-quaint-ish market town.
