I have recently taken possession of a new pair of glasses. So what you may think.
Well other than the generally inflated cost of acquiring such things in NZ, despite the arrival of Specsavers to these shores, age is having a negative impact.
The short-sightedness is much the same, the astigmatism is unchanged, but now the long-sighted old man’s eyes canot be ignored. Reading print with my usual glasses has become too difficult, and to now to fulfill all the requirements I have moved onto varifocal lenses-the modern version of bi-focals. As you might gather, more complex technology comes at a price, especially when put in some trendy designer frames.
So, thinning hair, grey in colour of what is left, less resilient achilles, apparently progressive deafness and now failing eyesight.
The viagra though is still in the packet.
