Binnie, Aww no poor you, we can both hang out here and keep each other company. I am off work too today, I would say I am enjoying it but to be honest I am hating every minute but never mind
£18 :eek: what did you have to have thats expensive. So far I have spent just the £2 but I owe mum money from stuff she brought yesterday so I think I am hitting around £5 :rolleyes: But hey at least I am greateful I am in a country where I can get medication
Bit annoying you wont get paid
although tbh I am not sure I will either, I will see when I go back
Ahhh not really with the money, you forget I dont have a house to keep/car to run. I am in a very fortunate position really which I remind myself each day. I do feel guilty sometimes though for not working full time in a better job but one day ~ again I remember the quote in my sig :T0 -
Hello Pap
I had to buy Golden Eye Ointment at £4.58. Then went to the docs who prescribed a stronger ointment and that cost £7.10 prescription charges.
Then yesterday at the hospital I got another prescription for antibiotics and another £7.10
Total £18.78 :eek:
This morning my eye was still swollen and sore, but it has eased off a little now, but is still puffed up.
Anyway at least I can get on with a bit of housework as my house is a tip :rotfl:0 -
:eek: Binnie, not good, not good at all. But look on the bright side, it will get you better, which is always a good thing in the long run. Hope you got a bit of housework done but dont work too hard
Ok so total cost of medication ~ £7.16 :rolleyes: Not too bad really, fingers crossed I will need nothing after this0 -

Morning Sammy :hello:
Well I just had a :idea: momment. I dont know if you will remember but way back when I decided to drive I found out I couldnt read a number plate at the required distance for the test. So I went to the optitions and found I was short sighted. So I payed I think it was £176.00 for glasses etc etc. Well anyways after I passed my test my glasses got chucked somewhere and I couldnt find them. Well lately I havent been able to see very well and my focus is rubbish when I move from something close to me to something distant ~ if that makes sense. Anyways today I decided to move my room around and I have found my glasses, and I can see clearer than before :T Will need to have my eyes tested again at some point though. Maybe after holiday0 -
Hee hee Pap, I'm rubbish at distance stuff as well. I don't drive and it's probably a good job I don't, otherwise I would be jumping red lights, lol.
The funny thing is, even though my right eyelid is swollen, I can still see better through it than my left one.
Maybe time for spectacles me thinks....
Hope you are all well and saving hard.
