I’m off to find a cereal box and concentrate on my surrounding 15 minute sphere of influence.

Book launch today. Have a listen to Vicki. Buy and Read the book. Meet the author - book on eventbrite link. :)

Eye Can See You Now. Both eyes are now fully focussed and raring to go (although I’m currently using my partners reading specs until my post op check up). Thanks to @Specsavers @NHS @Optegra for finding the issue and swiftly treating the fast-growing cataract that was found. 1/
