Helping the country
 
Because of my eyesight problem I very rarely contribute nowadays but feel I must draw to your attention the fact that one of Accy Web`s oldest members ( 86) is helping this financialy strapped country to be able to have money available to look after asylum seekers. Since having both hips replaced 19 years ago my wife has had to cut my toenails. As she is now finding this difficult I applied for attention by our NHS and had my first appointment last Friday. My feet, after all these years, 4 of which were spent in Army boots, are in such good condition that I was refused a further appointment as the NHS can only afford to treat those with "bad" feet. Am looking for youg female volunteers -- blondes preferred.:) :) :)

Welcome back.

I though all those of pensionable age were entitled to free care fron a NHS chiropodist?

I get mine done, because I can no longer manage to do my toenails.

It should be free, for those over a certain age, and who have paid into the system,decade after decade.

Hope you get a willing lass do do your's.

It was a pleasure to speak to you recently.

You Sir, are one of lifes' true gents.

I totally agree, the Chiropodist comes to my place every 8 weeks, I used to go to the clinic on Union Road until I stopped driving some years ago. Besides that I am due my first home visit from the Community Dentist next Tuesday, they are from the pals centre I think.
