Sometimes you need a sense of humour

Anyone fancy an Italian ruin?
Saw this place up near lake Como: https://www.idealista.it/en/immobile/21276008/
The heart goes "Mmmmmm, YES!"
Head not *quite* so convinced!
I could imagine spending 2 X the purchase price bringing it up to scratch, perhaps more.

The jab jabbed.
So we both had our vaccinations around 5.50pm this evening. Astra-Zeneca/Oxford vaccine, no side effects so far. It was run like a military style campaign, although being British, the instructions mentioned a requirement to bring a mask and the vaccination registration number but failed to make clear the need for our NHS numbers (sorted, but even so..... ).The innoculation itself was barely noticeable, so fine was the needle - the bad old days of vaccine emulsion being given through a large bore needle seem long gone, and I'm sure this was *mostly* saline solution.
Hopefully my friends can get theirs soon too.
Now we wait until June for stage 2, but the way things are going in Europe right now, I doubt we'll be travelling much this year, let alone looking at houses. Presently there are no plans for a holiday, and we'll just wait & see what becomes possible, if anything at all.

We have our dates for vaccination
How tempting it was to write vaccilation (even if it's not spelt correctly).
Anyway, yay us. Later this month, then June for the follow-up dose. Perhaps we WILL manage to get away at some stage this year, not that there aren't more important things, but that would be nice.
