Yes that is the one. Thank you Perdita x
Fun Fun.. went to Santander Bank Branch to update my mobile number with them, lady asked me once to check the details on their tiny screen my side of the security plastic thingy, I said "sorry Im severely partially sighted and I cant read that" she caried on some while then latter she said "ok, please check the details on the screen are correct" I just said, "Im sorry lady my eyes haven't magically been cured since the last time I told you I was sight impaired" I got a boot in the leg from land lady and a perplexed look from bank lady ... had she never come across registered blind people before ? She just got my goat.
Added to that in an ironic twist an obviously fully bind person with a fully sighted person who could see, whacked me on the ankle with his stick. his seeing helper said "didnt you see him coming, why didnt you get out of the way and walked on" Well because I didnt see him coming should of been the answer but by then there was no point. Note to self get that white stick.
The world is weird, I think I preferred it when I never ventured out into it.
The world is amazing but unfortunately it's choc full of weird people. Luckily there's the odd wonderful person here and there too. http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/angel/pray.gifQuote:

Come back JJ Abrahams stop messing about doing Westworld and do another good Star Trek chap.
I love land lady, but I had a bad anxiety day and she and I quote said "Oh its just all in your head" yes sister dear that is what mental health is about... it aint in my leg now is it :ninja: That comment is up there with "oh pull yourself together" and "dont be so weak and pathetic"
I said nowt, shes done too much for me.
Sorry to hear you've had a bad day - that insensitive comment definitely wouldn't have helped. You've got far more restraint than I have!
I hope tomorrow's a better day. http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smile...hug-774146.gif

My brother came from France with family on wednesday 21st and we were supposed to go to the theatre yesterday. My sister booked something called Duckie for 12 of us. She even went on Tuesday to collect the tickets. Anyway when she was handing me tickets on wednesday 21st at my mothers the tickets had 20th Dec on them!
She had not realised when she picked them up.
My sisters a bit scatty that is all i can say.
Anyway she got it changed to today at 11am. So no money lost. We just have to get up very early. With is difficult as the youngsters do not like mornings especially on holidays.
Splashy i have OCD about lots of things. Mainly things being in their place and things being clean. I drive my family up the wall.
I try not be the last one out the house as i double and triple check everything so another family member does it. Otherwise we would never get anywhere! I also make plans of plans and organise things to a level many would not. My husband never plans anything so he laughs when my plans fall apart. It makes me laugh too. As i get older i am less bothered

Swm66, does your brother speak fluent french? I live on the south coast and have spent a lot of time in France, well to the point I could get by, I always wanted to be more fluent.
Glad you sorted out the ticket issue
Yeah OCD is a female dog. I once had an important meeting in London so ironed my shirt, but then couldnt convince myself I had turned off the iron. Even thou by the time I was on the train I had placed the darn thing on the balcony out side the flat I was still unconvinced. Fun days... but like you I make land lady check everything last.
New cooker here is doing my head in, the dials on the oven are too small for me to read even using my magnifier, it made my pizza like a frizzbie last night.
I sympathise with you peeps who suffer from OCD.
