    I am asthmatic since childhood, they kept changing what group we should fit into.  I am in Northern Ireland and the group 16-64 with underlying health problems is active.  But then they changed it to very vulnerable which meant had been admitted to hospital recently.

    On Tuesday afternoon I received a phone call from my doctor asking can I come down in an hour and get my first dose?  Yes, of course.  They had vaccine over and did not want to waste it so calling in patients who they considered should be getting it. I go back on 4th May for my second dose.    Now we had to stand in the car park and wait to be called in, no sitting for 15 minutes, well there is nowhere to sit.  I was just asked if I came by car, no, then went and got the bus home.  Sorry but it is a two-mile walk home and uphill, so it was the bus.
