Today I also met Nick who owns the 180mph Capri & asked if he would drive my car if I was not allowed to drive (will explain) he said it will be a

Around Christmas time I started to notice a problem with my right eye, I don't wear glasses so was very surprised it got a lot worse over the next month or so went for an eye test. Ended up seeing a Specialist & it was confirmed 2 weeks ago that I have Macular degeneration. It cant be cured & I know what will happen in a few years as my Mum had the same & it started at my age . I have to wear Dark Glasses for driving as its caused by Sun damage. They say commuting for 30 years driving into the Sun may have caused it not helped by a Viscous detachment of the Retina a few years back. Im fine at the mo as my left eye is just fine.
