    Just think how much better you will be able to admire your new kilt suit through a new pair of glasses!

    Ouch. The frames shattered? That must have been some fall.

    Tough Luck.

    What kind of frames do you wear that they shattered?

    Just get a pair of cheap frames for now, the kilt suit has priority! Or, better yet, pick up a piece of quartz and grind yourself a couple of lenses Of course, I'm a compulsive do-it-yourselfer, so I may not be the best to take advice from

    The frames were about 4 years old and were already in bad condition as they were sat on by my nephew at Christmas one year. Shattered may have been an overstatement but pretty much the split down the middle and it would take a welding job to get them abck together. I brought them into the office to see if I could find someone at lunch to repair them and everyone suggested getting a new pair...

    Sigh....bye bye kilt suit....hello eyes....
