Do we need a separate thread about the war? Not to discuss, as everything is perfectly clear, but, possibly, to check if everything is OK with all of us? Or .... not ...

The history of the 4 shots is completely idiotic, showing that everyone is running around like a chicken without its head.
I got my first two shots in the Netherlands. Fine. With QR code.
Then the Netherlands was very slow with its booster shots and I went traveling and got my booster in Spain. No problem you would say, except for that in the Netherlands it was impossible to enter that shot into the system. If one gets the first or the second or both abroad in another EU country one can get that registered after an appointment and travelling through half the country, but the third one: impossible. One (still inexperienced) doctor recited to me the official rule that it is the responsibility of the country that gives the shot. He still knows very little about the difference between theory and practise. Also in Spain it was possible to register the first two from the Netherlands and then enter the third one but for that you had to make an appointment via a website that was open at best a few minutes per day. Finally my sister in law managed to get through to make an appointment for a month hence. Way after I went back to the Netherlands. Anyway, that would have given me a Spanish QR code and the same problems once we need a fourth jab and I would get it in the Netherlands. Apparently people who got their third jab in Germany did things like that, getting now their full registration in Germany (or France).
I opted for the easy solution: once I was back in the Netherlands I got another third jab in Amsterdam and that is now registered properly.
The really stupid part is: if a doctor gives you the third jab, he can register it in the system, but he is not allowed to do as if he gave you the third jab, after reading the paper certificate from Spain. And if you tell that you had a third one a month ago they do not want to give you your official third one because they figure that there should be three months in between. My regular doctor, who is much more experienced, immediately agreed with me. He has a number of patients who all ran into the same problem and when I told him what I was going to do, his reaction was: "that is clearly the easy solution".
It just shows that they can make all kinds of rules, but that does not mean they are working. Governments and IT projects do not go well together.

I was looking at the grid, working out what were going to be difficult areas but my mouse hand was clicking away without me being conscious of what I was doing. I was clicking on pairs in areas I wasn't looking at without even being conscious of seeing them.
It was a seriously wierd sensation when I realised what I was doing.
