    Tenth Anniversary
    Evening peeps. :)

    10 days ago one of my babies smacked me in my eye whilst playing. Totally bloodshot and bruising! About 4 days ago whilst looking at laptop or reading, it was like I was looking at things in 3D, like each eye was at a different focus. Been to Vision express today. Everything is fine, just some eye muscles bruised, But I now have to wear glasses. :eek: Didn't realise how bad my close up sight was!! Far sight is perfect. When they showed me some small writing, I could bearly make it out. When they put some lenses on, I was just like WOW, I can see it clearly. Long story short. My babies taught me that I needed an eye test. :)

    Tyrell's have brought out a new flavour crisp. It's Aberdeen Angus Beef and English mustard.

    I'll hunt out the pic:D

    That is rather a disappointing pic :(

    Just wondering where the mustard is ................

    Very disappointing indeed. Not a phallic symbol in sight. No big salt cellars, big chilli peppers or fireman's hoses.

    I know. I've looked very hard:o
