I realise it's not my call Herb but I'd be going for an eye examination at OPSM  (it's bulk billed)........they can give you a referral to a cataract surgeon who would confirm, or refute, the 4 year time frame and would explain your options for surgery.  In terms of urgency, I've certainly heard of 2 year time frames, but never 4. If the public hospital waiting time is 2 years where you live, perhaps you'll be advised to book in now.

Croikey. Thanks for that, Alinta - that's very kind of you. I haven't been looking forward to the Clash of Wills between me and this money-grubbing creature.

I wouldn't mind if these specialists told me I have a choice between the public system and their private surgeries - but they never give a hint that there's a cost-free alternative to what they're offering at a cost of thousands of dollars.

THAT's what annoys me about them. They pretend there's no alternative except to become a patient of theirs at a cost of thousands of dollars - hoping that in our ignorance we don't realise there's a public hospital system that will do these expensive jobs for nothing.

How many Little Old Ladies and such are being suckered into their money-hungry clutches each year? It's a scandal, but the politicians don't want to touch it because once again it would involve Ethnic Voting Blocs and charges of 'racism'.

I'll follow your advice, Alinta - and thank you again.

Their discrimination against little girls has been appalling.

It has always been a Recruitment Centre for career-paedophiles, pillow-biters and bull-queers, homosexual sadomasochists, and self-flagellation neurotics.



Nothing wrong with a little BDSM every now and then.

Oh Marla - how could you? Stop reading cods' posts. She's become a bad influence on you. You were so innocent and pollyanna-naive when you first arrived here, but codsey-baby has been corrupting you with posting up bits and pieces of her disgusting Mills and Boon style autobiography.

A good Catholic girl like you. Shame on you.

I've always been corrupted.

Besides, it's fun being tied up and spanked.

Not sure exactly (found it in hard rubbish); a good fifteen years at least.

I think it's about time to upgrade  Grin

I don't "get" the appeal of 'Big Bang Theory' I guess racist, misogynist sexist jokes are really funny when you pipe in an annoying laugh track. The acting is just as deplorable. Typecast one-trick pony actors who can barely read their scripts much less understand them.


I think the general tone of the show is just down to earth kind of comedy. The jokes are quite funny, and clean (for most part). If you are shocked by anything racist or misogynistic, then you might not want to leave your house.

We don't have many modern comedies in Australia. So, we aren't such to talk.

I think that one deserves a C-note minimum at the East Timorese Catholic church.

The Big Bang Theory does not have a "laugh track".

It is recorded in front of a live studio audience.
