    Evening all, we are here :j There was an accident on the way down but all was fine. What a difference a few years make though! The path to the beach I could hardly walk up last time I was here, I ran up it today :D Just cooking tea and then mouching in the van... NSD today :beer:

    Snaggs, come back when you are ready :A
    Elf, ouch! :D

    Pooky, I hope you got DH wheels sorted. They sound like they give him so much freedom, I guess you won't be without them now...

    :jHiya Pap

    Pleased to hear you got there okay.

    I no longer have the lens in :j
    I am no longer in pain :j
    My eye is 99% healed :)
    I now have a bandage :(

    On the plus side, we reckon if I walk to the local shops with it, my glasses on and mismatched clothing and mutter to myself nobody is going to bother me.

    Think I will be able to write my report for my friend tomorrow and draft a letter for the charity so probably won't die of boredom (which was looking like a strong possibility).

    I have got a small bottle of wine - didn't ask permission but was feeling like it!
