Went out today for 2 things. Haircut, successfully accomplished. Revalidation of my yellow fever cert to make it “life time” Nope
Why? Because we can’t validate a cert from a foreign clinic
Ok forget the cert give me a new jab( I have this covered) Nope Sir you don’t need it it’s valid for life.
So mission 2 was a fail. I wasn't about too discuss any further she was scary
