I thought that catching it again was meant to be extremely unlikely. I’ve been careful but I guess you just don’t know. When will you get your results? Hope you don’t feel too unwell? Some snow would be very cheerful Failing that, some sunshine  

Thanks for your kind words. The results should come through within a week pending how bust they are!!

Sorry to hear this mate! Out of interest when did you first have covid I had it in June when not many others had it. But I was the only one at my work who tested negative New years day everyone I had been around at work was positive!  Everyones telling me I'm still immune from the first time? But people that had it  few months earlier than me in Feb March and are the ones have caught it again!

My test in July 2020 was negative thankfully. Symptoms this time are different with a giddy head ans constant cough. Let's hope the test comes back negative! 

It's best to be extra safe as some are getting COVID more than once.

Any amount of snow will cheer all of us up!

Whatever happened to the cold but sunny by day/foggy and frosty by night high pressure systems that used to visit? Would be very nice now. Plenty of places need to dry out after recent flooding. Such a shame about conditions being the wrong side of marginal for snow at the moment, but unfortunately the air coming from the continent just isn’t cold enough with most places above freezing.

And I’ve tested positive for coronavirus again, after a negative test just before Christmas. So annoyed with it all now, but I suppose it could be worse. 
 

Sorry to hear about you testing positive again for COVID. Unfortunately, people can catch COVID again even though we have been told the opposite! 

I have also got COVID symptoms and posted my home test kit this morning.

To see some snow will cheer us up

Not sure about people talking proper snow? Perhaps on North Downs, What I read from MetO they’re expecting nothing but rain that’s the thing, as are BBC forecasts this is why people like myself are a bit suspicious. If I’m wrong I’ll be wrong, but I just can’t see it all being rain, conditions aren’t favourable for widespread laying snow but at times especially early and late Tuesday and Wednesday, they will be good for majority of us to see snow falling.

I remember a few years ago when the MetO only forecast rain, but the rain quickly turned to heavy snow. Bosses at Croydon Council were not too pleased with the MetO at the time!!! (Just in case, this was way before the MeteoGroup took over from the MetO re forecasts for Croydon Council!!)
