Well the eye test is free... sadly the glasses aren't! I need new ones too, usually wear contacts but not always and the prescription is a bit old in the ones I have

Ohhhh I wish .... nearest big town with colleges is 30 miles away so not really feasible due to fuel costs

I will have a hunt around tho' as if I could combine it with a trip when I was going anyway ..... might phone my old hairdresser (town where DM lives) and see if she can fit me in over Christmas - I only stopped going to her due to the fuel costs of getting from here but will be down at DMs anyway ....

Really need to get my eyes tested too :eek: and pretty certain I need new glasses as now having to take these ones off to read!:o

Hi Rising
Have you thought about trying a spectacle outlet for your glasses, I use one in Edinburgh, you just take you prescription into them, choose your frames and they sort the rest. I got designer frames and lenses included for less than £80 last time I was there.

So ... catching up on recorded TV from last night& really annoyed as one of my fav characters has left * and also that there was an extra episode on the red button last night :mad: grrrrrrr really annoys me when they do that!

* won't say who just now in case anyone's recorded it & not seen it yet;) (and funny as I really hated the character when "it" arrived)


Good news is that the new TD is here & works!:T It's huge compared to the old one :eek: which should hopefully cut down on loads!:T

I got lost with that one too - it's all these beeping mid-season breaks they've started to do as you never know when they re-start - next thing you know, the next series is on & you're like "what":eek:

The worst one is the walking dead

Although breaking bad is having its first one and tbh I am really struggling to survive without my fix of BB .... Best thing EVER on t.v

OMG don't:eek:

I have episodes 2 to 8 sitting on my Sky+ waiting to be watched .... didn't realise it was coming back on so missed the first one and really don't want to start at episode 2

Keep looking every week to see if they're doing a catch up re-run - maybe they're not at the lovely mid-season break they will
