It's a bouncing baby.........bit.

Had the very pleasant surprise of my new black arrivals bionic sight transplant arriving some 4 days early.

Took him apart and fitted the new aid, carefully ensuring that he didn't reject it and, after a couple of very dicey hours with no sight at all, the operation has now been declared a complete success.

He can watch videos faster and clearer and his ability to play Halflife 2 has gone from a jerky mess to a smooth and scarily pleasurable experience.

I'm sure some of his other limbs have also perked up now that he's not bumping into things and the panic I felt without life on the monitor during the op proved very worthwhile.

Confused ?

Shows you don't read regularly then ;o)

At least Lucretia will understand - she's had a casualty in the same vein so my thoughts are with her.........
