Katie - it all started when someone was testing their new HTML skills that they'd been learning to build a website with, to change colour.... Disgusting behaviour!! Not sure who this 'someone' was!!! lol Arthur and Anne - it was a funny afternoon, can't believe how many people joined in :-) Unfortunately it's not possible to do anymore :-(.... APPARENTLY! becx

Bec, Have had glasses since 11, but in the past whenever I've had to get stronger lenses, everything does feel a bit weird for a day or two until your eyes get adjusted to it. As for contacts, I kept mistakenly trying to poke my eyeball out to start off with in order to get the blasted lens to stay in...not a good idea, lol. Andy x

Bec I had trouble with my new ones, they are reactalight, and it took ages to get used to them, it should settle down, but if it doesn't Anne is right, take them back and get them re-assessed. As for the naughtiness on here a while back with the colours, i didn't take part but i saw it all, and found it funny. I promise not to mention any names to those that need to know though...your secrets are safe with me ;-)))) Yvette

I've been longsighted since I was 15 :-( Bad news because it means my eyes will continue to deteriorate (am now -2.0 and -3.0) whereas if I was shortsighted they'd improve and then deteriorate! Oh well, the new frames are cool and it means I can do the sexy secretary look! lol becx

Oh no Anne :-( I'm still adjusting... when I take them off I can't see anything... The optician did say that in the next 3 years I will need glasses/contacts all the time so I've waited until now to wear the correct prescription glasses - but I was getting such bad headaches! love becx
