Having done my planning for my TMA and, (as we all do), spent time correcting, referencing and making sure that feedback from tutor had been taken on board, l promptly sent of my work feeling pleased that l had possibly ticked all the boxes.smile   TMA returned quickly and promptly, downloaded and to my horrorsurprise had sent in draught work and not finished article ! Had to laugh, at my mistake, all that care and loving attention spent only to send of the draught ! So the moral of the story is obvious;
1. When planning and doing draughts make sure you give it a different title, to make it obvious when tired that it is not the finished article.
2. Check and if you are like me , check again and download work that has been submitted and check it  just in case ! thoughtful
Vaccination passports.
There has been an awful lot of coverage surrounding vaccination passports.
Why are we given a card when we have had the jab and what is the point of having the data base? Surely it would  have been a better option to introduce the nice designer card at the start ?
What was the point of the costing and production of the cards if they are to be void because they are 'not in the 'appropriate style.'
 Why is it that we need to have the cost of more production and the use of more natural resources, supply and distribution costs for something that we have all received?
 Surely this is a waste of governmental money that could be easily distributed into better and significant causes that ALL can  benefit from and not just a few, such as the health, welfare and education systems. Although the amount may not be significant it could go on something more constructive and thus be beneficial to the economy in the long run.
The cards issued should be  all that is required in my opinion, what else do we need to have on them ?
If the issue is regarding forgers, well that will inevitably happen but l am sure that is why everyone is on the data base ! Surely the card and a check on the computer is all that is required in this modern day of technology.
How does spending money on the passports assist the economy when the structure is already in place ? Or am I missing the point entirely ? thoughtful
Have a good week everyone.smile
