Have you checked out Selectspecs yet?
Glasses are now a huge expense. Designer frames, different sorts of lenses at additional cost, and then some sort of glasses storage to ensure they don’t become scratched and broken in your handbag means that the cost of being able to see clearly comes at a high price. Which is why I was very interested when I was asked if I wanted to select a pair of glasses from Selectspecs.com.

Making a picture from Oddities – how hard can that be?
And the answer to the above question is really hard, because the three year old tasked with creating the picture is more interested in eating them than being creative. Oddities, for those wondering which planet I’ve just arrived from, are those rather tasty wheat based savoury biscuits from Jacobs. They come in two flavours, bacon (which I’m rather partial to) and cheese. Joe, my three year old. isn’t at all fussy, he likes them both equally. (He told me that through a mouthful…). When I was contacted about taking part in a special Oddities national campaign, I was rather excited. Having a three year old can make blogging rather difficult…
