I don't know if anyone has them, I have had a couple of small ones for a long time. When I had my cataracts done, the surgeon said they may look clearer after the op, but they haven't, they were still almost unnoticeable.
However, yesterday I got up and immediately noticed a black shadow in the right eye, it was like I had hair in front of my eye, or an insect floating around...it makes it difficult to read, as it floats back and forth across the page with my eye movement.
It was still there today, so I rang the opticians, they told me to come in straight away. They did loads of tests, took pictures, before and after drops, then did all the tests again....very efficient. Anyway....it is just a floater, and I will have to learn to live with it, apparently, with it happening so suddenly, it could have been something serious, so I guess I am lucky.
I get them quite alot. But just floaters, nothing serious thankfully.
They are not serious, but they are a bloody nuisance.
I am having to wear sunglasses all the time whilst out so it's not as noticeable to me.

The fact that Israel came second in the Eurovision song contest and i was particulary disgusted with France.
Israel commits genocide against the innocent Palestinians and mostly children have been killed.
I don't know how many people are religious but Jesus was a Palestinian.
The subject is touched on in Praying For Time (George Michael)

In Jesus' time, Palestine was just another name for Judea.
But then Jews don't acknowledge Jesus as a messiah.

Any war crime is utterly unacceptable. On either side. But don't delude yourself that Palestine wouldn't obliterate every single Israeli off the face of the earth if they had the means to do it.

They would.
There will always be the strong and the weaker ones in any war, but surely, when you are the strong one, you have to pull back rather than keep on killing the innocent.

Most things on Amazon aren't what you think. There's more Chinese shite masquerading as the real thing, than you can shake a stick at.

Amazon are cracking down on fake reviews. I think most people realise not all are genuine, but they still influence whether people buy or not.
When I buy anything off Amazon I always make sure to read the negative reviews also. In particular if the item is expensive, eg camera/camera lenses etc, I always look for several reviews elsewhere online, I never rely solely on Amazon’s. Sometimes I will opt to buy direct from the manufacturer site rather than take a chance even if it means paying a little more.
Must admit I’ve never had a problem with Amazon support in the past but returning goods is an inconvenience that I can do without so I read up as much as possible on what I’m buying beforehand.
Like everywhere else there is plenty of tat advertised there as “good quality“ so Amazon clamping down is a good thing and long overdue.
