Title: Specsavers
Post by: Borlotti on October 26, 2010, 21:04:28
Went for a curry and it was good, apart from the 8 under 5 year olds who were eating or not eating there.  Miserable old Nanny, but it was 7 pm and had after a day of babysitting did want to talk to OH, not hear the screaming and spitting drinks through straws.  I digress.  After the meal I wanted a coffee, and I thought the waiter said, 'here is your coffee', well I got a milk jug, and a cup.  When I held the cup it was cold, thought maybe I didn't ask for hot coffee, I tried to stir it but it was solid.  OH was laughing, like men do, and I said could you ask for a hot coffee please.  It turned out not only was I deaf, but was stirring the lumps of brown sugar they had given me for the coffee.  When the coffee did appear it was lovely and hot.  I had already made an appointment for Specsavers tomorrow but didn't know I was deaf as well as stupid.  My excuse is I haven't had an eye test for 5 years.  Think that would make a good advert for Specsavers.

Well good news is my eyes are more or less OK, apart from the fact I need stronger glasses.  Good that they do all the tests, and the eye test is free for OAP's.  Said I also need long distance glasses so that may help me at tennis, thought I saw the ball OK but maybe not.  One day you will get old Kev, so show some respect.  ;) ;) ;)
