First time logged in I was offered Dover, over 60 miles away, 2nd time told no tests available. Ebbsfleet,which is about 3/4 miles away is apparently sitting empty. I can't quite work this out.

I found that if you have a symptom "Cough cough" I went from a 200 mile round trip, to a ½ mile round trip. The site did state words to the effect that keep regularly trying, as things change at short notice.

Dominic Cummings also went on a long car journey though with little coughing he did have an eye closed, goodness knows what his wife was doing to him whilst driving!!

Must admit I'm at a loss to see how this relates to the subject.

Maybe a politically motivated sexual innuendo against someone's wife?

Classy if so.....
