"Felt quite emotional having the jab, it has been a hard year! I am so glad there is light at the end of the tunnel.
"Huge thanks to Chris, one of the hospital pharmacists, for giving me the injection and to everyone working so hard to roll this out. It was a quick jab then back to work for me!
"Full disclosure I was given a star sticker for having the vaccine and being a good boy."
