This happened to me too and @uberEats did the right thing after I asked for evidence of drop off. #noPhoto #badUber. come on @uber #DoTheRightThing.
I told my @UberEats driver that I'm blind so wouldn't see his car but was at the door. He read the message and immediately drove off and claimed he delivered my food. Now Uber are refusing to refund me. @Uber_Support @UberUK.

Extract from my book "Life Unseen" "But what if one was not a hot blind lover? What if, as I lost my sight, I was not compensated with gifts of better hearing, taste, smell and touch? What if I was just, well, like everyone else?" @chrismccausland @johnycassidy @BlondeHistorian.

Thanks to @BloomsburyHist for giving me a platform to show hpw Blindness is NOT for inspiration or burden as @chrismccausland says- it just is. Very proud to write in an era which wants to learn and think more. #blindness #blind #strictly #AllOfUs.
Life Unseen by @Millsatwork is a deeply personal journey through the history and experience of blindness from ancient times to contemporary day-to-day experience. Out in paperback 📖
