It was picked up during a routine eye test at the opticians. Can't stress enough to people the importance of having these done. I am not noticing a loss of vision myself. There again I already knew I had stereo blindness (eyes not working properly together) this is due an op I had as a child to correct a squint. The squinty eye is lazy, so the other one works overtime to compensate. It's never caused me any problems other than not being able to see anything 3D.
Nearly drove myself insane in the 90s when those 3D pictures were all the rage :rotfl::rotfl:

My eyesight story is a long one:rotfl:

When I was 14 we had learnt to make flaky pastry at school.My Mum asked me to make sausage rolls while she was at work.

The shilling had run out on the gas so I got on my pushbike to go to the shop clutching 2 sixpences in my hand.

I rode into a dustcart and went over the handlebars and smashed my face up.
Spent ages looking for the money in the road but couldn't find it so tried to get back on the bike but the front wheels were buckled.

I went back home and looked in the mirror and had a fright so i went to my aunts house who lived round the corner.She took me to the hospital.
My Mum when she got home found a gas man taking the gas stove to bits.She thought that I had blown myself up.
He had come to the wrong house.

It was after me trying to watch the telly at 12 inches because my left eye had swollen shut that they decided I needed my eyes tested.My Dad was on a fishing holiday at the time.He said that he knew something would happen while he was away.

I had six weeks off school and missed all the algebra lessons and still don't understand it.:rotfl:

Possibly the most random thing I have / will ever ask in this forum, but after all this is the Elite... So anything is possible

It's my parents 25th Wedding Anniversary next week, there going away together, there not the most loving couple in the world, anything slightly romantic would make them hurl. They don't drink either... Anyone any good gift idea's I thought of flowers for when they get back from there hols, it's like four days before Christmas so any recommendations as to the best places to buy some nice ones from would be much appreciated. Along with a card... The selection is appalling!

Thanks in advance.

When my daughter married 4 years ago I didn't want the customary bouquet of flowers but had an orchid instead. The florist put it in a pot and it was presented lovely with bows and ribbons. It was in flower for several months without having to give it much care, it looks hideous when not in flower but it will flower year after year with perseverance. So I think it is a lovely memorable gift rather than flowers. Each year you can than buy an orchid if you are stuck for gifts at anytime.:)
