In the morning I took my mum to visit her osteopath to see if he could sort out her back and ankle problems. Whilst I was waiting for her to finish her treatment Mr C texted me to say my recently ordered prescription sunglasses were ready and should he bring them home for me. Mr C was in the opticians picking up his own newly ordered spectacles but I declined his offer in case my sunglasses needed some adjustment.

After my mum’s appointment I collected my sunglasses which are perfect, I can see things in much more clarity than I have been able to for some time (still awaiting my non-sunglasses prescription to arrive). Unfortunately the same could not be said for Mr C’s new prescription, he had to take them back. He now awaits the return of his glasses with lenses more suited to his requirements.

The unexpected optician visits led to a late lunch leaving me unable to join one of the planned walk events for ‘Get Telford Walking’.

After lunch I wanted to walk and Mr C wanted cake. The two desires were combined in a trip to Bridgnorth where we shared a slice of blueberry and lemon cake on the outside terrace of Violets Tea Room before an enjoyable walk around the town.
