Too hot to work outside on the Landy today. Much cooler in the garage, so I is in there upgrading the electrics on a 1967 bike to 1970's standards.

Hee Hee!I gets me prescription and interweb it to glasses direct. The optician wanted 900 sovs for a pair of varifocals. 700 sovs for a cheaper pair. GD did them for about 70 sovs. And they is the best pair of goggles I ever hooked over me lugs. Got a pair of reading glasses and two pairs of computer reading glasses, about 100 sovs all in. I never gets me goggles from the high street, they are a rip off. And I qualify for free eye tests n descriptions cos I is an old git![]()
And there was me thinking the frames would be the easy bitHee Hee!
Yerp, get your free eye test then go ont internet.
But our local eye-bod is really good and much cheaper than a high st rip-off merchant. Tis the frames that cost the dosh, the lenses are the easy bit! If you like your frames and have a spare pair then you could ask them just to change the lenses to your new scrip. It'll take a while but.... Much cheaper! Wifey did this a while back.![]()
