That's nice to know Tbae, I hope your eyesite is good. I go for a eye test once a year in January, going back 6 years my site deterarated very very slowly in 2012, 13, 14, 15 and 2016 when I had to get slightly stronger glasses, however, in 2017 I got a eye test and the result was the first time my eye site was improving so I had to buy weaker glasses to suit my eyes, this year there was a further very slight improvement to my site but I did not buy any new specs. As far as running, my hip is completely better and I have already started running again. Lol Tbae ""gone yersel" I will never forget that shout from that guy on my graduation day run

Regards

Alan

Brillant Alan. Pleased about your hip and improvement in sight.

It does happen if you are keeping healthy and fit.๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

Have operated with one eye since loss 27 years ago.I have found a marginal improvement and definitely a slowing down of correction needed in the other, as you have experienced.

I think I may get back running by October๐Ÿ™ˆOnce a week to the park is all,at present, and the other 6days on the hamster wheel, gardening.๐Ÿ™ˆ

Take good care of you.๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ’ฅ

Gone yoursel .๐Ÿ˜‚

Surely it was "gaun yersel" typically followed by big man or wee man as stature dictates. :)

Yes pinkaardvark, "gaun yersel" is correct rather than gone yourself another well know Glasgow saying which was said by the President of the 2014 Commonwealth Games at the closing ceremony was The Games were "Pure Dead Brilliant" only a person who lives in Glasgow would know that means the games were excellent. A few other Glasgow words. Steamin means drunk, baltic means that the weather is very cold, also, there are some areas in Glasgow that the word 'the' is first said i.e The Gorbals, The Carlton and The Cowdaddens, not sure why that is, I lived in Knightswood an area of Glasgow which was NOT know as 'The Knightswood", if anyone asked me 'where in Glasgow do you live? I replied, Knightswood, NOT the Knightswood.

Hi Floss, ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ love it.

Hope you are progressing well.๐Ÿ’ฅ

Must say I have seen plenty on here from beautiful legs, yours and Bevs and many others๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ to skinny dipping.๐Ÿ’ฅ

So the eye is fine and I intend to retain my licence, not sure of the ticker, mind you, at times.

Your right, raining today, look out garden.๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

Keep running to your HM and perhaps avoid the Tartan Army.I think they are trying a take over.Perhaps not, lovely bunch really.

Take good care of you.

Hello Mike and Allan that was a walk down memory lane for me.

My grandfather was a Macintosh from Partick/Maryhill. Up the Jags.Had a another family member who played for Rangers.

The Glasgow I experienced was the RCST/ Strathclyde Uni.

Love Glasgow and Glaswegians.

When I get a drink on a Saturday night Glasgow belongs to me.

I wish,just a boring old highlander who now lives in Wales.

Hi the forum , just ignore Aliโ€™s Tartan Army and as long as your smiling and your eyesight is good, you will hold onto your driving licence.That is if you want to.

Nevertheless Glasgow smiles better.Glasgow is miles better.๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
