Decision day on the glasses. Write out the pros and cons of the shops we visited and revisit two of them. In the end we opt for the first shop we went to - the one where they didn't give us the fast talk. And J persuades them to add a pair of reading glasses for each of us for an extra 99 euros ($140 CAD, £85). So everybody happy and specs to be completed by midday Thursday (day after tomorrow). We treat ourselves to a pint at the cafĂ© with the noisy parrot on the waterfront.
