My Dad had a 1971 Citroen DS21 Pallas that he ran for about 10 years till it rusted out, then he replaced it with a 1972 that had spent its life in the South, and ran that till it wouldn't pass either. It was all kinds of trouble, but mostly hydraulic, and the nearest place to repair it was 35 miles away. One time, he needed it repaired but didn't want to pay to have it towed 30 miles, so he just stopped every so often to top up the reservoir. Mom followed him, and got a windshield sprayed with a fine mist of hydraulic fluid for her trouble.
And that's not even touching on the two decades when my brother and his wife owned Citroens and Renaults.

The worst of my Renault days was the Fuego. I think whoever designed the wiring and electrical must have had quite a sense of humor.

Is the flu shot worth getting this year?
Currently just old-fashioned fill and inject ones.

Yes. One could argue that all the measures we are taking for the COVID19 are going to prevent influenza, but even so it's worth getting. I got mine a couple weeks ago.

As I think of it, all the measures aren’t perfect, and if Covid can sneak through so can the flu. And if I mess up and get exposed (family forum!) I’d like as much protection as possible. Especially with the Covid around.

I have no idea. I ended injections in July and I wasn’t due for a checkup until December but my vision worsened even more a week ago. Doc seems pretty concerned; I know I am. I can see very little out of my left eye anymore.

Flu shot feels milder than last year's so far; that one had me feeling stressed for a day. After four hours, this one is just kinda sore in the shoulder.

Try the Shingrix. Now that's something you may notice. I sure did.
You are too young for that, wait a few years.

I don't know. I was trying to work. Sounded like a couple of guys and a girl at a bar arguing about sports. At one point, they were going off about goats.
