Day 101 - Refocussing my life

No golf today: the body needs a chance to recuperate and there are lots of things to do around the house. I think I made some progress, but there is still a pile of pares in my To Do box so we can't be there yet!  One of the reasons that I was a bit slower today can be put down to my new spectacles.  Finally, I have given in: after years of perching my glasses on the end of my nose when reading, I have taken the plunge and purchased some vari-focal lenses.

I went into Leightons in Cobham to have them fitted this morning and was given a long litany of things not to do: don't drive for a day, don't move your head too quickly, don't forget to point your nose where you are looking, don't look too quickly down when descending stairs, yadda, yadda, yadda.

It is certainly true that they take a bit of getting used to ("only" two weeks, said the nice lady in the opticians) but they certainly make reading things and looking at my laptop keyboard a lot easier. Now I am worried that when I put my lenses in my brain will get really confused!

Back to the Club tonight for dinner: this week we are hosting the EuroPro event at Burhill and today is the occasion of the ProAm. As part of the celebrations, there is a gala dinner for all of the participants and the Club too gets to host a table. Diana, as Lady Captain, and I were invited along as guests.  Al was great only it was rather embarrassing to see the Burhill Juniors win 3 out of the 4 prizes...
