It's a shame covid brought your holiday to an abrupt hault. Myself (57) and my wife(64) caught covid for the first time 3 months ago(triple jabbed aswell) For me I had ache bones for a day and flu like symptoms for 3 days. My wife(who was told to shield due to medical history) just had mild cold symptoms. It seems a lottery on how it will affect you.

Watched the whole video thinking you wrote off the Porsche in a tunnel, then found it was just COVID 😃. Bloody annoying though to happen on holiday. I got it at Christmas. Not had a single jab, had similar symptoms but was over it in 5 days.

I’ve just had covid, I’m 40 years old and very fit.. felt very tired and weird for 5 days, headaches, body aches… it was a bit of a slow burner…then towards the end…. I could not breath for two days… and jt scared the hell out of me! I have a new found respect for covid. Still struggling with fatigue and shortness of breath. Stay safe!! Don’t expect to feel back to normal any time soon! : (

Here's hoping both of you have a quick & full recovery. Guess it's inevitable that Covid will catch up with us all at some point. Terrible luck to catch it on holiday though (even with a very nice hotel to isolate in). Having recently had Covid for the first time myself about 4 weeks ago, I can sympathise completely! Working throughout lockdown (due to my job), making a few trips south to England in the process, ironically I caught it close to home! Like you, I'm triple vaxxed (which I'm glad of, as it wasn't too bad - was back at work middle of the week after, with a few lingering effects for a bit longer), my Wife was just the same. Seems to be a lot of us that are late 40s/early 50s coming down with Covid just now. Doesn't detract from the video - still an epic road trip & something I've a hankering to do one day (bit too much hassle just now though, with a large dog who isn't keen on long car trips🤣). Bit too hot for me just now, I'd want to do that in spring or autumn, I think (I DO live in the North of Scotland)! If you're ever selling your Porsche.....! I've always fancied a 911, but think you've almost convinced me that you don't need a 911....that engine sounds glorious! I love my R Estate, but the Porsche totally eclipses it as a GT (pains me to admit it🤣). Hoping you're going to finish that video at some point - it's something different to your car reviews (which are informative & interesting, don't get me wrong), but I like these sorts of road trip videos - fancy doing a road trip to Wolfsburg one day, like you did in that RSQ3 a couple of years ago.

I don't know how you've dodged it up to now. Being jabbed now won't stop you getting the recent variants, just reduce likelyhood of serious [as in put you hospital] effects. I got it around Christmas - felt a bit rough for a few hours, then okay, apart from a cough that wouldn't budge for a couple or even 3 weeks. My 2 sisters on the other hand, both have long covid effects a number of months later. So fingers crossed you just feel a bit rough for a few days and bounce back not to long from now. People are getting it only a few months after a previous bout due to it mutating - so we've just got to get used to it alas. Oh, and I was enjoying the "Harry riviera tour" until then.
