The Sweet Service Award goes to the Somerset Hospital, and its efficient and friendly staff in doing my vaccination in only half an hour last week, from doing the paper work (I had registered on the Government and Discovery websites), to waiting my turn, to the vaccination, to the 15 minute wait after the vaccination, and confirmation by sms of the vaccination, and sending my second vaccination date.
