What have you been doing today?

Observing a health and safety course. They offered me a cup of tea then did this to get the kettle to work. I had to slap a wrist!

Av arrived home on Thursday, feeling very, very (sick) ill. She works in a school, and many of the kids in a class had also been similarly sick, as was the caretaker. She was bad Friday evening, through to Saturday morning, what ever it was, I caught the same Saturday, but managed to sleep through the night, with a bucket next to the bed in case.

I didn't feel too bad Sunday, though not eating. Then as soon as I went to bed, it all started up again. Feeling OK-ish now, but...
There’s a Covid variant doing the rounds with these symptoms
 
Our friend had the same symptoms a couple of weeks ago. Symptoms lasted over a week.

This more or less fits...

I felt not too bad yesterday, managed to eat a reasonable meal, but it came back, suddenly, and with a real vengeance today. I'm going to see if I can get a test kit, in the morning. The test kit I had, expired April 2023. It seems to come and go in waves.
 
Hadn’t been over the allotment for a couple of days and when I went, I found that courgettes that were the size of my finger were now the size of my arm. I brought them home, put them on my front wall and they were gone within the hour.

Rang the local pharmacy, to check they had Covid test kits in stock, after checking uk.gov site, to see if they were free to me. It suggested I met the free criteria, so I went along with proof. Pharmacy insisted they were no longer free, £2 per single kit, so I paid for one test kit.

Are they, or are they not, free if you qualify?
