Don't tell Ducky.

Ducky - be careful - you know that expression "I love you so much I could eat you" Hope you are well xox

@ROMOS...Don't tell people that!!!

@Poppy...How are you? Nice to "see you" again. :)

Oops!

ROMOS - sorry I told Ducky - just couldn,t resist - all girls todgether huh.

Tommyh - Hi - hope you too are keeping well. My Father was a Scot and I have in my youth been to Scotland so many times - cannot remember the taste of haggis and I do not believe we had this at home here. I vaguely know how it tastes and what it consists of but would not get an ology for guessing.

My father too was a Scot & I have tasted haggis.Pardon my French but it's bloody awful.I was just taking a cheap shot at Romos & Ducky with my answer. Glad you are feeling better Poppy.:)

I'm listening!!!
;)

Tommyh - yeap Tommyh - I did realize that just wanted to say this to Romas but it is probably unuaual or perhaps - why of course he's listening. Thanks for your good wishes.

I've often wondered about people tasting exotic foods (not necessarily duck eggs) but seems when asked they mostly say it tasted just like chicken.....why not just eat chicken

Caviar is very UN-delicious.

ROMOS - HI there - how are you - do hope you are well. I am just here because I had to open this thing. Somewhat out of action - heart procedure some weeks ago and would you believe on good Friday - just thought I would do something about my sight - going from magnifying glass to magnifying glass - would you believe covered left eye to discover I could not hardly if in fact see with the right eye - I should know so much better - so much happening kept saying I must go to opticians. Rang optician on the Thursday and explained also saying I would visit him and have all the tests repeated at the Eye hospital - he said yes and I should go as an emergency to Moorfields and there I was Good Friday evening a wait of 4 hours - nurse said the wait was seven the evening before. Saw this consultant Andrew Scott - I said to him that he was good looking and he said YES - you can see you can go now. Waited around and he saw me again I was the last patient and he said do not forget my name - oh by the way surname same as mine. Sorry long story short had the operation on the 19th April - pretty quick considering the NHS is such rubbish now, mainly due to nurse training I feel. and soon there will not be and NHS so Docs and nurses keep telling me. I will have to have the same operation on the left eye - i.e. removal of cataract this one not so bad and there I was so driving around but not far like I used to - imagine so scary and so stupid - could have killed someone. I'm told I will have a new lease of life - nice thought huh - do hope you are well - I am saying again - clocking off as been on this thing ages trying to sort it drives me insane when eyesight better I will come back more. Are you serious honours in Accountancy huh - clever guy - just read this briefly and Bob's comment - that's all I read. Just love the snooker. Take care of you. Sorry I am talking too much.

ROMOS - so sorry about this drawn out saga - it was just essentially to say how I am sure I am not the only person to neglect their eyes and how this can happen = especially the Afro-Carribean race who forget to get their eyes tested and have a prediposition to Glaucoma.

Ah ducks - so much nicer than people!!!!
