Nice to see you're not letting your eyes hold you back Kev..... :good: It's getting there, just some timber cappings on the hips (I have to cut that) and the 'air vent' on the top. I put an additional 3x3 post on each corner to help with the weight of the timber roof. Back to work tomorrow so it's ...

Morning Hope the eye is Ok Kev All good this morning, thank you :good: As Stanley mentioned, colours are much brighter in the 'new' eye and everything appears much sharper. Can't wait for the other one to be done now. Looking at a white ceiling really highlights the difference, the 'old' eye has a ...

It is

Got a monthly disposable contact lens and cleaning solution from Specsavers and all is good. I've had to get some reading glasses as my arms are only just long enough now to see small print. Ordered some from Amazon, 3 pairs for £8 seemed a bargain. Once the other eye has been sorted I'll get them b...

All good, thank you.
