<p class="has-drop-cap">A new year and time not spent alone. Although the weather has turned much colder the clear skies are not to be missed so my good friend "Julia" and I headed off to Sutton on Sea in the Porsche with the roof down. Outside the temperature was 10 degrees C but the heater was set to 24 degrees and "Julia" had a blanket to keep her warm.</p>

<p class="has-drop-cap">I wasn't happy with my Specsavers glasses. They were not that visually accurate and the glass lenses were heavy. I decided to try the independent optician in town.</p>

<p>The eye test seemed more thorough than the one I received at Specsavers and the optician talked me through the eye photograph images to explain that I had the early stages of cataracts.</p>

<p>In choosing new frames I wanted something that was completely round but these are the closest they could get. They are light on my face, fit perfectly and visually correct. So far so good.</p>
