The day I came out of Hospital, I was rang by my doc's surgery and asked did I want to come in for my Flu Jab ?
I asked was it absolutely neccesary as i'd spent 4 days in the Hospital having needles stuck in me and was pretty cheesed with them tbh - she asked me was I asthmatic or diabetic: I replied in teh affirmative to both, although Asthma has not been much of an issue over the last few years, she said " oh god yes, you REALLY need to come in and see Julie, the Practise Nurse"
Was there the next morning, had the flu jab and then she said - while your here you may as well have the Pneumonia Jab as well - job done
No aching arms, no side effects, nothings fell off yet - in a nutshell, don't be a wuss and go get em please
Pneumonia is a Killer and a serious threat to Asthmatics and Diabetics, i'd rather have a few seconds discomfort than spend any more time with the nice Doctors and Nurses in the Royal Bolton Hospital

PS - I'll rescind that last statement if that really really really cute nurse wants to come give me some jabs at any time of the day or night
