Oh thank you so much for the concern over my vision Northerner , but I have only recently had my eyes checked and have no problems at all . I would strongly advise Dave and your good self to get a second opinion though as YOU BOTH seem to be suffering from quite worrying signs of vision damage , please do not take risks with your vision !!! Take it from me and also Bev that Kate Bush is a frightening sight , as you will soon see when you have your vision corrected.. Good Luck !!! please do not be too alarmed when you see her clearly for the first time.... although she cant sing they do say she is quite harmless.
