Double Time

Happy Birthday To The NHS
I helped celebrate by visiting the Macular Clinic in the morning, mid morning, and since moving away from the 8:30am appointments the days do not seem quite so frantic.
Today, with the aid of the consultant, I made a determined effort to get an accurate assessment of my right eye.
I deliberately never looked at the eye chart when I entered the room and I did my right eye first. The consultant seemed happy pronouncing “no deterioration in the last eight weeks”. I had my injection and was on my way to a flat white with an almond croissant at Helston’s Boating Lake Cafe by midday.

Home I had a few things to run through with Sam before I was ready for this evening. A snooze before dinner and then Sam and I set off for the Stannery Bar on Exeter University’s Tremough Campus where the Penryn branch of the Royal British Legion were holding their monthly meeting.
I was to give a twenty minute talk on “War Dead In Cornwall” with an emphasis on Penryn’s St Gluvias cemetery. Turned out that I spoke for around forty-five minutes with Sam operating her lap top so that I could use a PowerPoint presentation to accompany me.
Apparently the talk was well received.
