In keeping with the family tradition of helping out, G´s sister has been volunteering at the local vaccination centre in the North West. Despite snow and freezing conditions (see photo´ of her all warm-layered and high-viz´d up), she has been putting in her shifts giving advice and guidance to the (presumably mainly elderly so far) citizens who have turned up for their jabs.
I guess she was also reassuring any nervous "jabbees" too, but that might have been a bit of a fraud, for when she found it it was her turn to get the jab today, she admitted to being (more than) a bit nervous. G was, of course, very reassuring to her - so it shows it is a family trait to give reassurance even when you aren´t quite so self-assured, as G would always be the last one in any queue when the jabs were offered (and boy have we had some jabs in our time in countries where they had diseases you have never even heard of).
Fortunately it all went well for Anne, so now she can honestly reassure the next wave of patients that roll up. I can already hear her saying "I have already had mine and I can promise it will only take a moment and will not hurt".
