OK … it’s Saturday, and I’m up, early!
Yes: I officially have an eye test, today.
And, hopefully — given my optician’s prices — I have enough money, and discounts, to be able to afford the required new spectacles!
Here’s hoping!

There’s a small estate in Brentwood: called Sawyer’s Grove, near to where my sister, Ruth, lives, with her son, Jude.
It’s a nice place, from what I know: and a mixture of social housing, and private properties.
And … ?
It had a bomb scare, yesterday: apparently, a man and a woman were arrested after three “small homemade explosive devices” were found in their property.
Alongside a number of wraps of crack cocaine.
I’m tempted to ask what the world is coming to.
Or say that the world is getting worse, or that this never used to happen in my town.
But … ?
These days, I’m more likely to shrug my shoulders: and tell you it’s not surprising …
