In the last six months I've had to give in and wear my specs most of the time. I have long sight so can cycle sans specs but pretty much everything else requires the goggles. Half of me is horrified by this turn of events, I've always been so lucky and not needed my specs apart from once in a while when tired. However, if I want to see properly I must give in to the ageing process become Spectacle Chap.

I hate the plastic, clunky looking ones that are fashionable for women at the moment - with my round, chubby face, they look very severe! LOL!

those of us who've been required to wear glasses full-time since age TEN have no sympathy
