ailbheOpticians' special offers change bloody hourly. Anyway, today I tried a new optician and got much cheaper glasses than my previous n pairs. These ones are gain a flexible frame with light-sensitive lenses and anti-glare and scratch-resistant coating. So what's different? Ladies' frames are all too big for my face and these are CHILD frames. HELLO I AM GOING MAD HERE.
I am not a child. I seem to be a fairly normal sized person, when I look around me. But I wear child sized clothes and eyeglasses, can't cycle most adult ladies' size bikes, need child kit for hiking, camping, etc - it's getting irritating.
I know plenty of people smaller than I am, too, in every direction.

I'm a size too big for most of the girls' properly-fitted shoes, too, though as girls' feet get bigger this will change.

Date: 2008-09-09 10:48 am (UTC)Though I am very useful when some of the local artists / jewellery makers are sizing things, because if it fits my wrist, it's a child size.
Watch straps are a big pain. I don't like leather buckly ones, I like bracelet style ones. Some of them can't be taken down to my size *at all*.
