If anyone would like my lenses let me know and I'll gladly give them away, they are even eyed +2's  on the reading glasses scale, I actually bought them a bit stronger than I needed and if they fitted my glasses they would have been perfect.


I have the pair of +1.75 and was going to order a pair of +2 so I could use 1 of each.

If no one else wants them, would you like to swap for some murrini/frit/rods or something?

That is really nice of you to offer me something for them, but if they don't stick I would feel BAD.  So why don't you pm me with your address and take them as a gift from me to you.  I will just be happy that someone finds them useful, they have been sitting in my shed haunting me since before xmas.....

I had a brainwave this morning.  I have the didys that came with Martin's starter pack and very poor sight. I can't get the didy's on over my ordinary prescription glasses so have been doing without them (shock horror!).  BUT this morning, I remembered the plastic lensed glasses that I got free with this year's glass pair, popped out the lenses and pushed them into the back of the didy's.  Ta-dah!  It works!!!!  I had to file off a little of the prescription lens to get them to wedge in properly, but I'm really pleased, it means I can update them when my prescription changes and also can still remove the prescription lenses when my daughter wants to use the didy's...

Even after all this time, the sun never says to the earth "you owe me".

Sounds a great idea and am sure people will follow suit. Be interested in a photo.

I've got some of those £10 reading glasses you get at the chemists - think I'll have a try with them. :)
