Hey Erica,
Went to emergency eye clinic on 26/3.
I made another referral to correct the one Specsavers
optometrist sent, which was inaccurate and contradictory.
My corrections filled an A4 page.
I gave it to the optometrist, who ran a complex series of tests to find what was causing my occasional double vision, which I told her only happened when I looked at a single item for a few minutes.
Her findings were that my eyes go out of focus when I do the above but return to normal when I don’t.
She went and had a word with the consultant who said it was nothing to worry about and he didn’t need to see me to investigate further.
The optometrist told me it was a good job I didn’t have the prescription that Specsavers gave me as it would have been a waste of money.
I’ll have a word with the manageress next week about the eye test ( which they insist I didn’t have) and the useless referral.
2 weeks of unnecessary stress for nothing!!
It’s worth mentioning that all Specsavers branches are a franchise like McDonald’s, customers are in an assembly line, fast in and out.
Each branch in the Uk make in excess of £1.5 million per annum!!!
They were so innovative and it was sad to see the keyboard player died after contracting Covid. New album due out sometime soonish 
@Blackhat, thanks so much for the update, yes, a very stressful 2 weeks for nothing, it is frightening isn’t it, thank goodness for your referral.
Please let us know if your eyes continue to go out of focus.
Perhaps it is lockdown to blame and staring at the same 4 walls !!
They’re my favourite band of all time, although I preferred their material while Hugh Cornwell was still with them. I’ve also followed him since he went solo and really liked his last album, “Monster”. Some really good acoustic stranglers tracks also on that album.
It was really sad about Dave Greenfield’s passing last May. His keyboard sound really made them unique. I wonder who they’ll get to replace him. Also that only leaves JJ as the sole member from the original lineup.
So so glad everything is ok!
Happy Thursday forum family! This week your sixth and super instalment of the 
Friday Jukebox Club comes a day early again!
Ready? Great! …
As a reminder, here’s how it works:
- Each week, the Support Services Team will share with you two random words.
- You find a working YouTube link to a song or two that relate, however tenuously, to one or both of those words (feel free to be as imaginative as you like).
- Share a YouTube link or describe a song related to one or both of these words in this thread.
- Include, if you’d like, a description of why you picked the song so we appreciate it even more.
- Listen and enjoy!
Your words this week:
- hangover
- eyes
So one of the words is “eyes”, but do we spy with our little eye some good music choices from our forum family?! We think so! The floor is yours 
…
Take care and 
happy almost Friday 
everyone!
Warmest and most musical wishes from the Support Services Team
Su, Alice, Bav, Sophie, Rebecca & Kate
I’m now singing out loud in the car!
I am going for an Eric Clapton multi whammy.
Hangover = Cocain* (it would not let me post the word !!), Wonderful tonight (the lovely slow version), Crossroads (his addiction clinic)
Eyes = My fathers Eyes
Yes, also singing Can’t take my eyes off you, thanks @Nichola75 and Eye of the tiger, Sexy Eyes, Hungry eyes, My eyes adore you, there’s a lot to choose from out there.
Has to be this one for me, love it.
You’ve gone eye crazy!
I do love this part of the week! The song choices bring back so many memories!
I’m surprised that last week (nice/easy) nobody suggested Francis
Albert’s “Nice 'n easy does it”
Still thinking about this week’s.
Hangover cure= Diana Ross
Eyes without a face= Billy Idol
@Blackhat @Dyslexicprof @Nichola75 @ChrisCKW @Willow @SP7 I watched some of the Fleetwood Mac programmes on BBC4 TV last night and went to bed with their songs playing in my head and woke up this morning and they were still playing in my head.
Love Eric Clapton, from early cream up to today
But as you’ve already nominated him…
I think I’ll go Wide Eyed and Legless by Andy Fairweather Lowe from mid 1970s (hangover)
And
Pale Blue Eyes Velvet Underground featuring the incredible Lou Reed
Ps still in Macmillan unit with little blood and lots of temp spikes 
just had 4th full blood transfusion and about to enjoy 3rd lot of platelets - yummy!
Oh @ChrisCKW, good choices. I am so sorry to hear that you are still in Macmillan, I know that you had obviously hoped to be home by now.
You are obviously not have the traditional Easter treats then.
Hang in there, your health comes first.
Sending extra special wishes X
Thanks @Erica thanks @Nichola75 - not expecting Easter Bunny tomorrow 
but I’m being well cared for xxxx
Hi @ChrisCKW, I am so glad you are being well cared for, that is the main thing and I do not know of any Easter Bunnies the medical world anyway.
For hangover slightly tenuous;
A Case of You - Joni Mitchell
For eyes a bit early 90’s kitsch that I dig out from time to time:
Beauty to My Eyes - Voice of the Beehive
