And another change of plan

Elanor and Sally came round first thing, whilst it was still cool and overcast. We went round to field three and had a tyre throwing session; the tyre is starting to look tired where she's chewed it. We'll have to have a look for a replacement in the hardware shop in Stone where we got it when we pass through there.

Elanor then gave us a lift to the Royal Derby, getting us there in excellent time. In the event, I wasn't seen until just after my appointment time but wasn't all that late, despite it being a very busy clinic.

The good news is that my visual fields and optic nerves continue to be in good condition. Unfortunately my eye pressures remain too high for comfort. The answer is to be a dose of laser treatment, but not until late September, so we have time to get up to Poynton for the Braidbar Owners' Weekend at the beginning of that month.

We'll need to leave straight afterwards, though, so if we want work done on the boat, we will have to head up there now, with no diversion to Stourport, shucks.

Oh well, if the laser does its job, we should have more cruising time next year.

Possibly...

It's continued very hot this afternoon, so we've been hiding in the boat. At least that's meant that I've been able to get the Pub Guide updates finished.

Tomorrow, an Ocado delivery in the morning, then we'll set off after lunch, stopping to fill the fuel tank on the way out.
