Anyone ever driven past it and seen it busy? I doubt it, and they are all the same.
It doesn't matter what colour the government is, welsh red or brit blue, if people aren't booking tests after all the fuss on national radio and TV about people not being able to get them, how do you force them? The answer is, you can't!!!
We went to the one in Newport, and it was very busy. It has become less busy as fewer people report symptoms, and as more people opt for home tests, or get tested in the workplace.
