Long soft and yellow....

The bubble in the eye has already reduced to less than 50% of my vision when I look straight ahead. Now when I am looking down I can see a dark circle which I assume is the outer edge of the bubble.
Today I needed to be at FarFar Away for a Southwest Water survey. This was so that I could get a water meter fitted, to avoid paying approx £2000 pa on water rates.
Alastair picked me up at The Swamp to drive me round. After a quick tour of the property we noticed a van outside with somebody who could've been who we waiting for. The driver got out and did indeed turn out to be there for SWW. He said that he could fit a meter straight away if there was room in the box! He took a meter out of the van and attached it to the supply. Bish bosh sorted. He gave me some paperwork with the serial number on it and that was it.
Eh? Not what I'd call a survey? Still it is now fitted and I will now only get charged for what I use. Now then, where's that pond that needs filling?
Alastair then dropped me round the corner at Ali's who has said she'd do me supper. Curry was on the menu. No feeling very stuffed.
We opened a bottle of wine I'd sent from my trip to NZ way back in 1998. The cork fell to pieces but wasn't completely dry so didn't look to be corked. The wine looked very yellow and not at all like an unoaked chardonnay. The smell and taste reminded me of a brandy. It wasn't unpleasant but was probably a bit stronger than original. Wasn't going to drink too much of that.
I had also asked if she could knock up a support for my forehead to aid me while I need to keep the head forward. This she did but threatened it'd be pink and frilly. Thankfully she didn't do that but made it out of yellow fleece instead. Less mickey taking from the boys. I have tried it out and it is ideal.
While getting this down I got a call from Anne to ask how I was and if there was anything I needed. Nothing tonight. I keep saying I've got great mates.
This was sent from my mobile phone.
