Worzel concedes defeat...

After a great deal of careful consideration, I have taken a very big decision today. I know it will please some people and disappoint others, but my circumstances are such that I know that this is now the right thing for me to do.

I have been building up to it for some time and everything fell into place this afternoon. The decision is now taken. It is irreversible

What is Worzel waffling on about now, I hear you ask....?

Well, I'm aware that there's a brief summary of this posting in the feed on the Eastleigh News website, so I thought I would have some fun with my opponents in the Shamblehurst by-election...!

I'm sorry to disappoint you all, ROFL, but I've actually taken the decision to buy some reading glasses. I've been putting it off for as long as possible, but conceded defeat and purchased a couple of a pairs today.

I don't have too much difficulty reading, generally speaking, but occasionally I do find the small print difficult. I have noticed myself reaching for the magnifying glass on a couple of occasions, which is a good clue that I need reading glasses. At least I've been able to postpone the evil day until I turned 50. I don't think my eyesight has done too badly...

What made me decide to go for it today, was that I saw that Poundland in Eastleigh stocked reading glasses. I couldn't believe that they were only a quid, I had to ask, but sure enough that's all they cost. A quid per pair.

Great, I'll have two pairs I thought. One to keep at home and one for the van.

Perhaps that will stop me from delivering parts to the wrong customers now...?
