  1. was saddened when today at his eye test, upon wishing the excellent East European optometrist good wishes for the future was told that they were leaving because "we're not welcome here". A depressing day.

      You know what - it is what it is!!  If one Liverpool season ticket holder decides not to go anymore because they don't enjoy it - that doesn't mean the other 61000 are the same!  Every single day in our Cotswold Town I hear a chorus of different languages and it's bloody marvellous.  If your Optometrist is leaving that's their choice they have ownership of that decision and the comments that followed are massively disingenuous to the majority of us.  Not necessary at all.

      And for 69843 - during quiet hours it's 'Ops Normal' to provide direct routings. Minimises delays and saves fuel!
