Wild Eyed Fanatic

"Wild Eyed Fanatic" is a quote from a Peanuts cartoon for those who don't recognise it...

I have an eye exam every nine months (glaucoma).
Every eighteen months I have a test which requires dilation of the pupils...like this morning.
It takes several hours for the eyes to return to normal. In my case, one eye reverts much more quickly then the other. So I am left with one eye having a relatively normal pupil size while the other has a HUGE pupil size.....
I wonder if this is why people come into my shop, take one look at me and run away, looking anxiously over their shoulders.....they seem to think I am wired or something - homicidal maniac at best!
Not relevant to motorcycling I know but an experience none the less....
Back on the bike tomorrow....with two normal eyes I hope....

You could always move to Canterbury.They are all one eyed down there so having two abnormal ones you would be ahead of the game.

Pics or it didn't happen!

And if we don't get pics this time we'll have to wait another 18 months.

Yeah - I was down there for nine years...and I lived just by Lancaster Park (as it was then). I didn't have to go to the games - I could tell how they were going by the boos from the crowd......
