As age sets in I need glasses to look at the monitor and to read.
I have my glasses on a cord around my neck, Granddad style.
I getting fed up of the little clips that attach to the arms of my
glasses slipping off or snapping. I've bought loads from ebay
sellers, all crap. Can anybody recommend a site for heavy duty
cords? One that will post them to me.
Screwfix are asking for over 6 quid delivered! This is a bit much.


DIY something.

That's a thought.
I do have some old shoe laces somewhere.

I've just been oiling my bathroom light switch. The pull-cord is a
woven outer with straight glass-fibre core, so doesn't stretch. How
about using such cord, simply knotted to the glasses? Or curtain cord.
