I am in a similar situation. I have ARMD, already lost the central vision in my right eye but treatment on my left eye is keeping it at bay for now. I also have cataracts but the Ophthalmology specialist has advised against treating it for now just to be on the safe side.

Unfortunately for King Charles, he has to do what the government tell him or ask him to do. I can't imagine for a moment that Charles is relishing the visit.

Truss was high on the list if not number 1 as the worst Prime Minister's the Uk has ever had. In the short time she was in charge, about 49 days, she managed to ruin the `UK economy and since her expulsion she has ranted on about the way she was treated and has since gone to the far right extreme of politics. I agree that what she is doing now is a matter of treason and yes she should be arrested and placed in the Tower of London for the rest of her days. Stupid, stupid woman.

As Trump has now set his heart on being an ally of Putin and seems to be cutting any ties with Europe and the UK, isn't it about time that Europe and the UK cut ties with Trump. Defy both him and Putin and immediately invite Ukraine to join both NATO and the EU.

How on earth can any country hold an election when it is daily bombarded from an enemy state? Zelensky is trying his best to keep his country out of the hands of Putin who has been in power for 20+ years and voted in on elections which are to say the very least fraudulent.

I have never liked Khan in his position as London Mayor. I never understood why he was given a knighthood he has done nothing to deserve the honour. Now his changed position on Trump confirms my opinion of him and if anything makes me loathe him even more.

Ha certainly forget the vodka. I flew with Aeroflot to London once via Moscow. They didn't serve any alcohol between Bangkok and Moscow and on the Moscow to London they very reluctantly served a glass of wine by a sour faced Russian stewardess and that was it. I would never travel with them again.

That's very strange as I have accounts with HSBC in the UK and all they have is a Thai address and I've not had a problem with them.

In My Opinion for what it's worth I would mention Mae West as the ultimate vamp, closely followed by Marlene Dietrich with her wonderful accent and her oh so sexy voice and then Fenella Fielding again with the sultry voice.

What's the point of banning bottled beers and using cans instead. It will still be the age old problem, instead of glass bottle litter it will now be cans littering the island.

JFK was assassinated in 1963 so if an intel person was 25 at the time that would mean he or she would now be 86. You say that person would almost certainly be dead by now. Surely not these days as many people live well past that age.

I agree with you regarding a military coup not being better than a free elected PM but surely what Thailand now has is an unelected government and PM where her father seems to be running the country behind her back. This government was not what the Thai people voted for, they actually voted for Pita and the MFP party. Pita should be PM right now but the senate which is heavily biased towards the military overruled his accession to the role of PM.

Casablanca for me has to be top of my list, followed by To Kill a Mockingbird, then Shawshank Redemption, the Godfather trilogy and of course any film which Maggie Smith was in.

I would never trust my.eyes to a cut price ophthalmic surgeon. It is not worth risking my sight for the sake of saving money. The slightest thing going wrong and you could be blinded,

I agree with you, I'll believe his stand against the unions when the cow jumps over the moon. So far he has shown no spine unless he is punishing pensioners who let's face it are an easy group to hit. Unfortunately with the size of the majority he has in parliament, it will take an enormous swing to get him out at the next election.
