Merry covid Christmas everybody.

I won't be going anywhere as I have just found out I have the bloody virus :roll: Didn't have anything planned apart from a rehearsal on the 27th and gig on NYE. After the new seven day rules I can probably still do the gig but wouldn't be surprised if it gets pulled. Bloody bass player gave it to me at rehearsal on Monday night. He did a pub gig on Friday night. Said pub is now closed cos all the staff are off with covid :roll:

So far I have cold like symptoms and a tummy ache. Ho ho ho.

Hope it is a mild dose and does not put too much of a damper on your Christmas.

They say that the new Omicron isn't as nasty as the 'old' Covid. Still, keep yourself warm, Stu and I hope you can enjoy your Christmas.

So far it's just cold symptoms but then I only started with symptoms when I woke up this morning. Time will tell. Christmas was only ever going to be the four of us at home.

Might have to buy some music to cheer myself up. I never got those Live Coltrane albums you recommended Fret so they might be top of the list. :dance:
