Stuart lost his sight in one of his eyes yesterday, Lynds drove him for an emergency eye test. They found a clot behind his eye, he's got to go back to Newcastle Infirmary next Thursday...poor man, it seems never ending for him

I don't know Baz what I have read about it there isn't much treatment, and he may not regain normal sight in it.

Whoops But it’s easy to mix the two things up ….apparently the main characteristic of the new strain is a bad sore throat . By the way , I see everyone over 50 is getting a booster in the autumn .Mind you the way the numbers are going up I reckon they need to bring the boosters forward !
