Minister for Equalities Kaukab Stewart has launched a pilot scheme providing free #rail travel for companions of blind and partially sighted individuals on all #ScotRail journeys across #Scotland, starting 1 April 2025. Announced at #Anniesland Station in Glasgow, the initiative allows those with an eye +1 National Entitlement Card to travel with a companion at no extra cost, aiming to enhance #accessibility and affordability for visually impaired passengers. Running for one year, the scheme aligns with existing concessionary travel policies for #buses and ferries in Scotland. Ms Stewart highlighted its importance for community access, education, and employment, while Craig Spalding, Chief Executive of #Sight Scotland, noted the significant achievement of the Fair Rail Campaign, emphasising the positive impact on independence and community connection for visually impaired individuals.

dans la piscine en train de me baigner-alors j'ai vu là belle inconnue arriver-tout d'abord j'ai vu ses très jolis pieds-et j'ai vu ses longues jambes fuselées-puis son beau cul ferme j'ai remarqué-ensuite j'ai vu son ventre bien musclé-puis pour me parler elle s'est penchée-là mes yeux sur sa poitrine ont louché-là ses cheveux et visage j'ai regardés-

C. 14 months ago my eyeball fell apart for absolutely no fucking reason.
I'd never needed glasses so thought my eyes were fine, hadn't been to the opticans in years.

Eye tests are free in Scotland and there are 660 opticians to choose from. Book one:
