making space...

I've been doing a bit of decluttering at home and in the shop recently. Not a full-on clear-out but a slower bit-by-bit sifting. Yesterday's small task was just one drawer in a soon to be redundant chest of drawers. In amongst other long forgotten 'items' was this small stash of my spectacle wearing history. Note the Deidre Barlows from the 80s (although missing is a large white metal framed pair - the memory of these must have been too much to bear). Second down were my Jack Duckworths with sellotaped legs (worn for rather a long time in this state). By the mid 90s my staple were the round framed Harry Potteresque pair which wobbled around on my nose. Not just a sad reflection of my fashion sense in the 80s/90s/00s but a frightening illustration of the mammoth task ahead!
