Another nice day and got a couple of things sorted.
New eye gel as the drops I had were not working too well. Brief phone chat with an optician and she phoned the local pharmacy to check on availability who gave them on a pharmacists prescription. No idea if you have that system in England but it is quite handy. We have to register with the pharmacy and they can give a range of products without bothering a GP.
Bookings made for my next mainland trip. Heartening to see somebody else in the office obviously learning the system and my bookings are complicated so very educational.
This suggests they are not contemplating closing the office here as that is a major fear for many.
Parking is currently a problem of course and tourists choose to park where it very clearly says 'No Parking 24hr access required"
This is for access to refuel the Kilchoan ferry and no doubt they would be quick to complain if the ferry could not sail due to no fuel getting to it.
