Because it's been 48 hours Becky rang the contact number. They said due to the demand they couldn't chase it up yet, but to ring back if she hasn't heard by Sunday!! :? :roll:

What???? :roll:

A friend of mine said on Facebook that she’d had a test yesterday afternoon at 3pm and then posted this morning that she’d had the negative result through. She’s in Oxford.

We are now watching "Perry Mason" on the CBS Justice channel - in the original black and white!! :lol:




Have you seen the recent remake with Matthew Rhys? Brilliant stuff, and much darker and grittier than the Raymond Burr version.

No, Osc, I see it's on HBO and we don't have that platform. Have to wait until it hits one we do!
Watching the old 1957 series, Mrs O keeps cracking up every time District Prosecutor Hamilton Burger appears .... :mrgreen:

Because the Drama Channel is showing evening repeats of programmes they showed last month (which were also repeats of the month before that :roll: ), we've abandoned them as well and now got hooked on CBS's "Walker, Texas Ranger" starring Chuck Norris. It's awful, more cheesy than a gorgonzola, but strangely watchable ..... :lol:

Jo, the ones we had last week were so quick! Just under 24 hours. Becky has been on some local pages and there does seem to be an issue with the drive-through here at the moment :(

That's not good for B is it
On a practical note it makes me wonder how many people would still try to go to work if they where waiting for a test results not easy if you have a family to feed and Bill's to pay hope B is feeling ok
