Luckily we're due back on Sunday, appointment day... but... 1. How strict are they about the appointment times? It's a loooong drive home. 2. The only photo ID I have with me is my driver's license, but it's the crappy old version on a piece of paper. I assume that's ok though? It would take too long to go home first to collect my passport.

andrewbrowne wrote: » :rolleyes: Google. Thats exactly the point you have thoroughly missed. The HSE has changed that date. Plus they have separated the groups but yet their registration is subsequently a free for all and nothing like that breakdown you posted. Bit like saying over 18's only but letting in the kids too

I rang the pharmacy to ask about the second dose as I'm due to go away in mid august and my major concern was that the HSE would leave me hanging for dose 2 as they have for many on this thread, pharmacy said they have the supply and I'd be back in exactly 4 weeks.

Oh wait, I’ve been wanting to get vaccinated and travel open up so I can get over to England to collect my Dads ashes, where he died from cancer last year, because he couldn’t get treatment because of Covid. Get some perspective ffs.

HalfAndHalf wrote: » Yeah don’t twist my words, you need to get perspective on registering before your age group just to skip the queue.
HalfAndHalf wrote: » Yeah don’t twist my words, you need to get perspective on registering before your age group and multiple times just to try and skip the queue. Just wait like everyone else and get the vaccine you’re offered when it’s due. And when people take the time to help you, show a little gratitude instead of the entitled ingratitude and complaining you’ve actually done! And it’s a thread for confirmed appointments, not for you to try and get info to facilitate breaking the rules!
