He Did Go To Specsavers...

We weere a bit undecided as to whether to go to The Cheshire Oaks today or tomorrow, but in the end decided on Wednesday. Good job..quite early this morning the phone went and it was Specsavers to say that his new glasses were ready. That is pretty good going because they weren't due in till tomorrow, so off he went into Formby to get them. He also went to Waitrose, got some money out of my bank, and then got his pasties for Friday and the rice puddings. Then went to the new garage to get some top up petrol for the trip tomorrow.
His new glasses look really smart, they are what are called semi-rimless frames, so they have a frame on the top half, and a cord round the glass to hold them in. Lovely frames actually, and he was pleased because they should be £99 but he got the complete glasses for £81. With the Medicash money back, they will have cost him £1 !! Now that's a bargain.
I stopped in and did a bit of ironing, just bits and bobs really, then had a look at books on the Amazon kindle site. I do have to say I'm a complete convert , it is a fantastic thing to use, and the range of books is incredible. The only problem is that it is hard to choose which to read next.. At least on Amazon you can look at a book and read the first few chapters and get a flavour of what a book is about, and I don't have to worry about the size of the print now, which is a huge bonus.
If we go to the Cheshire Oaks tomorrow, it will be interesting to see which shops have changed and what new ones there are.
Tonight we are having:
Sausageless rolls
Little potatoes sliced and fried in fry light
A small tin of something tomatoey.
