A couple of weeks ago, my Mother mentioned to me that she would be applying for her free bus pass as she was turning 60 soon (today actually! Happy Birthday Mummy!!). Anyway, when she read the forms she noticed that people under 60 with certain medical conditions could also apply. Being partially sighted was one of the conditions mentioned and as I only have one eye I thought I would give it a go and see if I was eligible.
The first thing I needed to do was to contact my doctor to get written confirmation that I was indeed partially sighted. After contacting him last week, my doctor told me that he would leave me a letter to collect for the middle of this week. After much drama, confusion and stupidity from the nice people in the doctor’s surgery reception, I finally picked up my letter this afternoon! I can now proceed with my application for the bus pass as he has confirmed that I am indeed partially sighted and he is supporting my application!
So watch out, me and my mother will be coming soon to a bus route near you! Beware!
Oh I see, you and your mother will be gallivanting around the country with your free bus passes while I sit at home playing Diablo 2.
It’s okay, you have fun, I’ll just play with myself!
Awwwwww you can come too! It’s just that you can’t gallivant for free! I might make friends with that smelly guy who goes to the coast everyday on the bus with his pass! I could tie my shopping trolley to my coat with washing line like he does!
