Eye hospital can't take the eye out, give it a polish, and pop it back in.

Instead it's laser surgery for a torn retina.

Office day and the mystery of the vanished Nakd bar. Will need to well shake the pannier when I empty it in the morning as its definitely not in the rucksack.
Lunchtime trek to M&S for gift card free bananas and TV guide enlivened by assisting a lost Great Yorkshire show attendee heading in completely the wrong direction for the free bus from the bus station.

Ooh! I hope it is all sorted out soon.

Ooh! I hope it is all sorted out soon.

Thanks. Laser surgery done and we hope that's fixed it. If not then I'll be transferred next week to a major eye clinic for more invasive surgery.

Currently I'm munching whilst recovering although the eye's a bit burny. Given how much lasering it's had to repair a quite long tear I'm not in the least bit surprised.

And my optician will receive a thankful phone call tomorrow for being persistent when the eye clinic 'lost' their initial referral two weeks ago

I had a nice 10 mile ride out to Fold Farm for a dozen of their free range eggs. They also make their own ice cream from their dairy herd. I somehow managed to resist an ice cream this time. 🍦

Successful Magnum hunt contrary to the sceptics in the office. Car to Waitrose for milk and fish using £1.50 of app vouchers and they had a single pack of three classic Magums for £2.75, so saving a visit to Asda.

It's been a hot, breezy and mostly sunny day here chez Casa Reynard.

Slept well. Met up with a friend and her dogs for a nice walk among some hedgerow-shaded trails this morning. Also gave her the buster collar I made for her gang should it be needed - to replace the one she lent me and that Lexi trashed. She was well-chuffed with it.

The rest of the day was taken up by a mix of small chores, photo cataloguing and watching the football. I kind of didn't realise I had accumulated nearly a hundred photos in the calendar last year alone. Whoops! Some were a Christmas pressie, but the rest were acquired simply by asking nicely. I do have some more heading my way at some point in the future.

Anyway, I now have to produce all those thumbnails to stick into the catalogue. If I remember rightly, I think I can automate that process in Photoshop.

Had a lovely and slightly naughty supper of leek bhajis with a mint & garlic raita.

She's also quite generous, she allows to me stay in her house, pay all the bills and clean up after her
Plus after I've served up her din dins, should I decide I fancy tuna for mine, upon the initial sound of the can opening, she's suddenly sat right behind me with a look that means I can't do anything but share.

Ah yes. THAT look.

The one that says "I haven't been fed in a month!"

I know it well...
