Thanks to Mr Williams and Carl

I see Mr Williams annually for my eye scan and eye test. I experienced the usual good service. Mr Williams is always very pleasant and helpful.
I would also like to mention Carl who always fits new specs and makes any adjustments necessary. Always there to help in any way needed. My thanks to both gentlemen xx
