Re: Eyes
I had a great craic with the operating staff,
I just lay down - they had music on the radio
and we joked and discussed the music, seemed
like no time and it was all over.

The Apprentice is waiting for you to take over your watch again, jump to it. While you were sweating in anticipation, I was enjoying a drink and a chicken dinner on my 88th birthday.

Re: Eyes
John mate you have done well.
Far better than a mate of mine here in Melbourne.
Had the op but could not have the new lens due to some swelling.
Because of our new lock down he now has to wait until September for the new lens to be fitted.
Happy daze John in Oz.
Life is too short to blend in.
