Dude. Now. I don't want to be flip or anything? But it could be a tumour.

Hence all my cats are firmly affixed to their tables. Gerry can do his best, my pussies…

My optometrist uses about a tremendous amount of expensive heavy gadgets to test my eyes. Would require a van at least.

I now have a marvellous vision of David swivelling back and forth between nailing up interior walls and launching nails across the room at the keyboard. There's a remarkable lack of typos!
