    [QUOTE=lisawaters;32125653 I've had some good news or done something cool every day this week. Tomorrow is a big meet at the eye specialist. They might operate again. I'm taking my white stick in case.

    And with the sun shining too it can't help but make you feel better :D

    I'm a bit squeamish about eyes though :eek:

    I used to be like that. But once they've sliced through your cornea, seared off a few microns of your quivering green limpid pools with the heat of a million suns, and generally mucked about with little brushes and spatulas...

    Maybe, but it's a good example of the sort of effort we're looking for...

    Come on guys, must try harder, only a 100 emails... bl**dy hell , we could have built a mansion in the hills with a fantastic waterslide going down past the shops and onto the beach by now! I thought I told you all the deadline was 22 April! For obvious reasons!

    Mike, Poo will likely sort it out for us, it's ok.

    Hi!

    Yes, he did indeed. More than 100 emails from forumistas and he and I have talked and I'm waiting to see if they decide to take it on as an episode. You have NO idea how wonderful that would be. They're sending someone here to have a chat and measure up to see if it meets with the programme's objectives, time, budget and all that.

    Maybe won't hear for weeks or months as they're still filming the current series. But a fabulous result for everyone who kindly added their support, whatever the outcome.

    And some hope at last!

    :j :j :j It all sound very positive Mike. Excellent news. Here's hoping it is what they are looking for and we can go ahead! (Mostly because we want to be there for the big party and Saxy and I want to [STRIKE]slide on[/STRIKE] admire your oak flooring!)

    Matymoo, you ok? That wasa mean trick our Mikey played. He's still calling birthday shots, you see.

    Hey all, belated Happy Birthday Mike!

    Good luck with the eye appointment tomorrow Mike. Ahhh you reminiscing about the laser eye surgery brought it all back to me. I was awestruck when I had mine done. It was truely a miracle for me. I must admit though, I did feel a little queasy when you mentioned the other thing - eeeewwww!

    Anyway, hope you had a great birthday.

    Speak again soon, take care,

    Belated is fine! Thank you very much. I didn't do much today but I've had some good news or done something cool every day this week. Tomorrow is a big meet at the eye specialist. They might operate again. I'm taking my white stick in case.

    If they operated again today Mike, I hope you're not in too much pain & that the op was more successful this time round!
