No trotters in Ejendals

The infamous Swedish tabloid, Aftonbladet, has successfully dug up another pulitzer-prize winning story; Leksand's ice hockey team has recieved flu-jabs.

That's right folks. That's a story and a half.

In all fairness it's apparently the fact that through the team doctor, they have managed to secure the flu jabs, whereas other people will have to queue up at the local GPs or hospital. Some people are outraged that they have been able to get these before pregnant women, the elderly and otherwise more vulnerable people. It might be worth adding that there is no shortage of the jabs whatsoever, and the team has as far as I can understand not received state-subsidised medication.

In the UK, you can just pop into your local supermarkets or pharmacies and get the bloody thing for under a tenner. It should hardly need to be more complicated than that. But don't let Aftonbladet know!

If I'm going to pay for anything being injected into me, it wouldn't be something as boring as that. I'm open to any suggestions...

Verdict: Half of the team will be bed ridden for a few days after taking the jabs, and the other half will get what Desiree Jennings got and start skating backwards. This will possibly be an improvement of the performace of the team of late.
