Attempt to solder a catch back on to an old clock's dial bezel. Failed. A soldering iron for electronics isn't up to the task. Much more heat required.

There was another Eye Clinic appointment on Thursday of this week, and a dental checkup on Friday... or so says the diary. Can't remember the outcome of either, but a I suspect that may have been the last of over five years of eye clinic visits, and some horrible medications with associated long lists of side effects... many of which I could tick off as having experienced.
