Life in the NHS











{September 23, 2005}   Not sure if it is me but…….


I am having no luck at all with the contact lenses lately. Ok so they don’t make my eyes look like this, but if they keep splitting in my eye who knows what will happen?

In the UK you average monthly replacement toric contact lenses are not exactly cheap, around £20 per month give or take a pound or two, so it is not the best thing to be sitting in a meeting and suddenly realise something odd has occured around your right eye! I’m not even due to change them over till the beginning of the month. The meeting wasn’t exactly going smoothly either, I arrived just before 2pm and found just me and the chair present. I had been invited along to advise on the education and training aspect of what they were to be discussing, so wasn’t best pleased. The other participants, thinking that the meeting began at 2.30, arrived at around 2.35! What a way to run a meeting. Still managed to escape, along with my blurred vision at around 3.30. It all adds to the joy of the week rounded nicely by a pizza and some red wine. I know that I am meant to be dieting, but it was very nice!!



Great website, nice tips, thanks for sharing
