Training in Quarantine – Day 305

Decided to finally action the upgrade notification on my phone and Lineage OS wanted to update from Android 10 to Android 11.

The upgrade went off without too many issues, but I then found out Open Gapps had no package fro Android 11, meaning I had to resort to MindTheGapps — a minimal package that only allows Google Apps to work, but doesn’t actually install any. Consequently the Google Apps I had installed via OpenGapps decided to stop working as a result. I had to uninstall and reinstall everything from Google — Search, Notes, YouTube, Maps, Home, etc.

But fortunately everything else seemed to work. Camera MX decided to stop working, so I’ve gone back to CameraZoom

There seems to be a nice feature in Android 11 where if an app does not use a claimed permission after a period of time, Android will automatically remove that permission. Useful for applications which claim more permissions than they really need.

I also went round the torched fence and managed to get a pic of the new fence

Training in Quarantine – Day 304

Didn’t log this yesterday, but did my usual walk, pretty warm day and most of the pubs are now open, though my local one isn’t still. And I’m beginning to wonder whether it ever will.

Meanwhile, I finally got round to going to Costco and sorting out my physical membership card.

Training in Quarantine – Day 303

Did my walk and today was mostly me lying in bed trying to move without my body feeling like absolute s**t. Aches were difficult to deal with in the morning, headache slowly subsiding and the fresh air help clear my head a bit more.

Training in Quarantine – Day 302

Did my walk earlier today — I’ve developed a headache (one of the common symptoms of the jab) and it’s been making it difficult to concentrate.

The walk helped, but my jabbed arm is aching again.

Still have a bit of nausea, but no diarrhoea or vomiting.

Plus it looks like it’s about to rain..

Covid Jab

I have now finally had my first covid jab. It took a while queuing outside the centre before I could get in and go through all the checks and stuff.

I got the AZ vaccine

I finally got my jab in my right arm (I’m left handed) and it immediately started to sting. I did not need to wait 15 minutes as that was only required if you were driving. I took the bus in.

Training in Quarantine – Day 301

Moderately cold today, but comfortable to walk in. Did some shopping for more dairy milk on the way home.

Also, I finally got the notification for my covid jab, and I managed to book in for tomorrow and the second jab in July.

In other news, my Curve card had some fraudulent transactions against it which I have been talking to them about today. The transaction is now reversed, and also on Monzo (on which the transaction went to), so we are now even, but to be safe, I blocked and have requested new cards for both.

Training in Quarantine – Day 300

Colder today than yesterday, so had my hands in my pockets most of the way, but when I walked in the sun, it felt good.

Walked past the house whose fence caught fire recently and they’ve now put up a new fence. The charred remains of the tress that got burnt have been trimmed down to the trunk roots.

Training in Quarantine – Day 299

Today was cooler than yesterday, still okay to walk with running jacket. Did some shopping for dairy milk while doing my walk and headed back afterwards.

Training in Quarantine – Day 298

Another nice warm day, but roadworks are bloody EVERYWHERE. The past week it has been roadworks up the road from me, and then this weekend are more road works, jamming up my local shops.

Training in Quarantine – Day 297

A nice warm day. Did my walk with my running jacket on, but possibly didn’t need it.
