BROKEN..........Out Of Order

Did a few chores this morning and this afternoon I got a bus to Gateshead.  Its 4 weeks since I had my second cataract surgery so it was time to have another eye test.  Went to Specsavers where I had been before.  Saw the same optician as last time.  He was very thorough.  I need new varifocals so that I can see better for distance and also for reading.  

So I perused the frames and chose a pair I liked.  The final price including lenses is £212.  Money well spent I guess as I will be wearing them all day every day.   They will be ready next Tuesday.

After my appointment I did a bit of shopping... and found my blip shots.

The Mono Monday theme today is 'Order'.  I found an out of order toilet and an out of order escalator.  I was particularly annoyed to find the escalator was broken as its the one I use to get to the bus station when I'm heading for my bus home carrying heavy bags.  Its often out of order and I have to walk up the steps   Some others were walking up the escalator but I find that very difficult.  Thanks to jensphotos and  laurie54 for hosting.

My original idea for the challenge was something I saw on the bus when I was going to Gateshead ... a discarded sandwich on a seat .... " Bang Out Of Order ".  But my photo didn't look very clear in Mono so Ive just added it as an Extra.

It was rainy this morning then dry and sunny.  But VERY windy.  There were times when I was out when I could hardly walk forwards the wind was so strong.  There have been a few fallen trees locally but no injuries as far as I can tell.
