The Curse Of Friday 13Th

[mrs_overall]

It hasn't taken long for it to strike. I fell asleep on the sofa just after midnight and woke up about half an hour later. My brand new glasses which I had had in my possession for just over 8 hours (£279 if you want to know) had gone AWOL from my face. I found I had been laid on them and they are now mangled grrr

[1ozzy]

Ooops, can you re-arrange your face so they still fit?

[ummmm]

Hopefully they can be fixed.

I stood on my glasses the day I got them. It's very very annoying!!

[mrs_overall]

Great idea oz, why didn't I think of that?

[1ozzy]

It's only because some thoughtful people have re-arranged mine once or twice in the past.

And they didn't even send me a bill!!!

[waterboatman]

Some have tried to rearrange mine too oz, in various parts of the world.

[mrs_overall]

boaty & oz - I think you are trying to say you enjoy a good Saturday night out? ;-)

Did you use a credit card, if so you can claim, even on a debit card too but it's more difficult. Friday 13th soundsounds to be another reason, with the weather, to stay under the duvet with Ian Rankin, metaphorically speaking.

[zebo]

soundsounds? Must be an echo!

[1ozzy]

I certainly used to Mrs.O.

Somewhat past it these days. Quite happy to leave those shenanigans to the youngsters

[mrs_overall]

zebo, no, I didn't pay by credit card.
One of the Junior Overalls once broke a pair of his/her brand new specs. I went to the opticians, made a full and frank confession, and I expected to be charged for a replacement pair. To my surprise they said they would write them off as a manufacturing fault and supply a free replacement pair.
I don't know if a chain opticians would do this - I use a local opticians as I am a great believer in supporting local businesses

Mrs O.

I'm sure you meant to say, 'I have lain', rather than, 'I have been laid', or am I wrong?

[mrs_overall]

Wishful thinking on my part jackdaw

[1ozzy]

Are you the Curse of Friday 13th Jack?

[ummmm]

MrsO - All three of my kids wore glasses and I was forever in SpecSavers getting them fixed. They never charged me. The NHS used to allow 3 pairs a year for young children but again, I was never charged if they went over that.

It's very hard to explain to a child under two to not leave their glasses on the floor.

[Jackdaw33]

Just as well. Getting laid with a dodgy pelvis can be rather tricky, or sore.

lol

Wii do jan.

Right, I am off for now. I have just had a whiff of bacon so I shall head for the kitchen to investigate, I am sure Youngest Junior O won't mind making me a BLT

[Jackdaw33]

Me too, back to bed. Only got up for a pee.

Mrs O....you seem to have more than your fair share of problems lately !

I would stay indoors for the rest of the day and don't on any account try to cross the road !
