further to yesterday's unfortunate incident involving spectacles ...

I actually broke the arm, rather than the lens. And as they are almost four years old, it was probably just old age that did for them (I can sympathise ..). I did have Vision Express insurance when I got them, but they never reminded me about it, and it wasn't renewed.

perlmonger has very kindly mended them, in some Heath Robinson-esque manner involving a plastic drinking straw and some red sticky tape. So now I look like a pikey, but at least I can see again - the spex I was wearing were giving me eye strain.

Get him to use Sellotape or a sticking plaster and you could look like a computer-type person. Or a trainspotter.

If they still make the frame, you can probably buy a new arm for them. Or, you can buy a new one of the same frame and stick the old lenses in it.
