It's a shock when you are unused to having to wear glasses all the time and she really 'bucked' against it until the day she clambered onto the wrong bus and it started off down Harrington Road instead of heading for the Fulham Road.
Upon arriving at work, she told Amy, her new manageress about it and said that she needed to go back to her opticians to get a new pair of sunglasses.
"No no" said Amy, "you must go to this website that we all use, it's called theopticshop.co.uk and they are marvelous for two reasons which you will see when we log onto it!"
So today she went into the shop knowing that Amy would be there and would show her the website.
And, sure enough, Dear Readers it is an extraordinary website with everything you would ever possibly need in the way of prescription glasses or sunglasses.
Now you can, should you so wish, pay mega money for frames by the big names but as she doesn't so wish to pay mega money, she searched for a pair that were a reasonable price, tinted and by good make.
And she found just what she wanted, a pair of sunglasses with a pretty tortoiseshell frame made by Converse for the very non-mega amount of money.. 34 pounds.. we haven't found the sterling pound sign on the new laptop yet.
Of course, you have to have your current eye prescription, which she has from Moorfields Eye Hospital, they'll be thrilled to hear that she will be wearing distance tinted glasses when she's out and about.
OK.. here's how you find them..
www.theopticshop.co.uk
And no, you don't have to tell them that you found them on my blog. But, you could pass the word on about them to all of your friends and tell them that GeeGee told you about them.
Now to something completely different. Dear WW came home tonight with the following:
2 tins of mixed beans, 20 large eggs, 4 bottles of Schwartz spices, a bottle of Worcestershire Sauce aka Lea and Perrins, a giant swede (vegetable not human), 5 persimmons aka Sharon fruits, 20 easy-peel satsumas, a red cabbage, 10 library books, 2 lamb chops and a ceramic pot for a cacti.
That would have been physically impossible for her to carry in bags but WW just swallowed the lot with no complaints, trundled along behind her and brought everything home safely.
Do you get my drift? Have you looked at:
www.madebydiane.com
yet? If not, why not? This is, of course, directed at our Dear Readers in America, because WWs and trolleys are very popular in the UK and Europe.
When WW dies.. pray not yet.. she will be getting a Trolley Dolly, that's for sure, we will ask one of our friends to bring one over, I wonder if she'll do an oil cloth pattern of parrots? One can but ask.. and hope.
