along with a flu jab.

The COVID booster was the Comirnaty mRNA version.

There had been some problems locally a week or so ago with people being booked in for vaccination but the COVID shot not being available yet. Everything went smoothly with my own vaccine, from booking an appointment by phone after receiving an email to the day itself, when I was out of the hall in about 20 minutes.

I've had soreness at both vaccination sites on my arms overnight and this morning (COVID in my right arm, flu in my left one), but that's passing now. I may have felt a bit shivery late last night, but much less so than I experienced after one of my previous shots.
