Happy Birthday Kev, hope you've had a great da.....Oh wait, it's me isn't it. I nearly forgot!

Seriously, thank you all very much for the good wishes. Now, if you'll excuse me I've got a few cold beers to enjoy.

A belated Happy Birthday Kevin! This time I have a legitimate excuse - I had eye surgery on Wednesday.

:cheers: :guinn:

Thanks, Nigel.

I'm always delighted and honoured that people wish me a 'Happy Birthday'. But more importantly, I hope everything went well with your surgery and that you are well on the mend.

Regards

:thumbsup: Thanks Kevin and Graham. It was cataract surgery in both eyes and went very well. Colours are far more vivid and I can see distances a lot better.

Nigel, congrats - I had both cataracts done last autumn. Quite a difference, isn't it! :)

It certainly is a big difference and I would have done it a lot sooner had I known it would make such an improvement.

Delighted to learn that both yourself and Paul have benefited from the cataract surgery.
Many years ago, I suffered an eye injury playing 5-a-side football (the ball hit me hard in the eye), which resulted in a stay in what was the Birmingham Eye Hospital (due to severe swelling of the eyeball). The next day, I was waiting in the day room to be collected by my Dad and there was an elderly lady having her bandages removed following cataract surgery. Her reaction was a delight to watch as she seemed so astonished at the difference and was almost in tears of joy.
