    Burnley to the Oakley Outlet just south of York.

    And the bloody shop was closed for refurbishment.
    I was not the happiest of sausages.

    Ah well.

    Picked up two pairs of Vans for £30.00, so it could be worse…… 🙂

    If that photo resulted from the trip, then I’d say the trip was well worth it!

    Just a random picture – good though innit?

    I was much, much angrier than that after a 4 hour round trip. 😐

    Just to make my day even better, the barber informed me this morning that I am now no longer officially ‘thinning’.
    It’s worse than that.
    I have joined the ranks of the tonsorially challenged. 🙁

    Still, got 2 pair of shoes and a bag of Cadbury’s misshapes, so it’s not all bad. 😀

    I take it they didn’t have the ones you wanted at the Oakley Vault @ Cheshire Oaks?

    No idea!
    They’re both the same distance away – we picked the York one. 😐

    Buying a pair online now – much cheaper on fuel.

    Cheers Drac! Just saved me £15 on a new pair of ski goggles that I was going to buy tomorrow anyway!

    I left a pair of sunglasses in a restaurant once. Getting them back cost me £12000!

    We’d been to look at a car which I liked but the ex wasn’t keen and as it was the first I had viewed I decided not to be hasty. On the way home, myself and the ex went for a meal but I left my glasses in the restaurant. I realised when I got home and called them and they had put them behind the bar.

    They were fairly expensive ones so I agreed I would go back the following day to collect them. And whilst I was down that way I popped in for another look at the car. And drove it home!

    The ex was livid 🙂

    You live in Burnley – what need have you for sunglasses?

    140 miles @ 45p/mile = £63

    Just how cheap were they?

    We had a great day out in York anyway, so no great loss.
    😀

    And did I mention the Vans?
    Some lovely green and grey Eras for a fiver, plus a pair of suede Chukkas for £25.00?
    Bargain.

    Ordered some white Radars with the Jade Iridium lens last night for £97.00 including a case.
    Very happy with that.

    And yes, it’s a remarkable likeness isn’t it?
