Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 21-11-2023 — The Sun Always Shines On TV.

21st November, 2023: The Sun Always Shines On TV.

Right … 

It’s officially official: I’ve had my diabetic retinopathy check.

And will be getting a letter about the results, soon.

By post.

I may possibly need to resit the test: as the cataract in my left eye was making the photo — specifically of my left eye — difficult.

We’re going to have to see.

So to speak!
