    Ouch Butti, you're brave to go back and have the other eye done. I think I'd have to have em done together or else I'd have one good eye :cool:

    I'd love to have it done, but my eyes are too bad apparently :o

    Buns - have a letter ready and waiting to post when we go out. It's the first real bit of discrimination we've come across and it really did shake us both.

    Thanks Bun. Worst thing is I'm not allowed to cope with the pain with a bottle of wine - my beverage of choice :D

    Having just one good eye was really tempting :rotfl:

  • Morning everyone,

    It's really windy here and having the windows open isn't going to happen. I tried and it slammed shut!

    Today I will be finished off my references on my assignment and handing it in nad hoping that ym headache doesn't turn into a migraine.

    Pooky - I'm glad you've written a letter. Enjoy your picnic.

    Bunny - enjoy the hog roast.

    Butti - you;re soo brave getting your other eye fixed.

    Spud and SRM - hello.

    LMC x

    Hiya LMC-good luck with getting it finished...
    I have the unpleasant task of breaking some bad (ish) news to a friend today....we promised we would drive her daughter and friends to their prom on friday in our RR,but it's not going to be ready in time. The bodyshop accidentally set fire to the roof lining during prep for painting,and despite all our best efforts a new one will take a few weeks to get. Made to order apparently....so I have to let them down...not good, a promise is a promise and all that..

    Hi Under pressure..take a look at a website called "the weather outlook"..you put in your postcode and they forecast up to 30 days ahead, i've always found them pretty accurate..
