Re: Coronavirus

On the subject of World-Beating Test & Trace...

On Monday, the COVID Symptom Study app asked me to get a test. So I booked myself in online. I chose a walk-in test centre in a car park in town. They emailed me the address, so I put the postcode in the car sat-nav and off I went. I arrived to find an empty car park. Hmm....

So I put the postcode into Google Maps on my phone. It drove me round the block and back to the same empty car park. I was just about to give up and go home, when I thought I'd try entering the full address instead. Turns out they'd sent me the wrong postcode.

I guess there are more ways to beat the world than "World's Best".

The test was negative, by the way.
