I have several pairs of glasses, I counted them up and there are 8 pairs in all.
Some for reading, some downstairs, another pair in my bag and some upstairs. Saying this I still often can't find a pair, lol
Over time the arms become tired and tend to spread out therefore making the glasses slip down my nose. Tom had tightened the screws but basically they are just getting old.
I have found a solution to this by taking two tiny bits of cardboard and putting them inside the hinge part of the glasses, this tightens them up and they do not slide down my nose.
When we went to the cafe the other day I took my glasses out of my bag and didn't have any cardboard.
Being a resourceful person I found a replacement the did the job nicely.
2 bit of lettuce stalk from the chicken sandwich did the job perfectly.
And if you don't want to waste anything they can be eaten after use, lol

ReplyDeleteNow that's a novel way to carry your lunch :-)
ReplyDeleteLettuce learn from this.
ReplyDeletethis is hilarious, the lettuce i mean.. where there is a will there is a way is what came to mind. even my expensive prescription glasses do this after a wild. I go to the shop and they somehow tighted them so they don't slide down.. bob has reading glasses in every room yet at times there are none in the space he needs them
ReplyDeleteGenius!!!!!!! You have inspired me, Briony! How did you know my main pair of glasses slide down my nose all the time. Now I know what to do about it. Thank you!!! ~Andrea xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteHaha, it's amazing how resourceful we can be. I can never find my specs either, I'm supposed to have a pair in each room and in each handbag it's amazing how they all tend to end up in one place. x
ReplyDeleteOMG! Hilarious!
ReplyDeleteYou are too funny! That's hilarious!
ReplyDeleteLol...A stroke of genius I think...
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever idea. Very resourceful of you.
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha! Making do just took on new meaning :)
ReplyDeleteWow, you are SO creative! I think most people would naver have thought of this.
ReplyDeleteHaha, that's so funny. I think there would be very few people who would have such an idea.
ReplyDeleteGood for you!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant, though not a lasting job! I just did a quick count of specs I own....at least 10 pairs of reading glasses. I am lucky that my prescription for them is simple, so I get them from Poundland..for £1 would you believe. Beautifully made and last for years! I can reach out in most places in the house and have a pair to hand.
ReplyDeleteGreat post. I used to be checking constantly this weblog and I'm impressed! Extremely useful information.
