Removing my glasses for my morning ablutions yesterday, one of the lenses fell out onto the bathroom floor, closely followed by the tiny screw that holds that side of the frame that secures the lens. Fortunately I have a spare pair of specs, but the screw being really small could not be found.
It being a reasonably dry day today, (we even had ten minutes of sunshine this morning), and the Seven not having been out for about three weeks,(the last time it was out and about was the 3rd November, I notice) I decided that I would take it over to Dolgellau some 18 miles distant, to get my glasses repaired.
The forest track from my house to the main road, and, indeed the main roads themselves were still filthy from all the wet weather we have endured here in the Welsh fastnesses just recently, so, by the time I had got back home, the little car looked as it it had been on trialing event. Mind you, my Mk2 Polo, being my everyday transport, looks like that permanently is spite of being washed once a week, so I busied myself this afternoon in washing both cars and leathering them off before putting them in the garage.
I may even amuse myself by wax polishing them both this evening!
