Default Pretty optician makes my eyes water

One of the arms on my specs had a screw loose, so I took them in to the opticians in Gurney Paragon today.

The pretty young Chinese-Malaysian optician asked me “Do you want me to give you a screw?”

I gulped, and replied “Yes please”

She then gave me several screws, foc.

Of course, in my 'view', she has now become even prettier.

But what should I do about the tears in my eyes?

I love Penang.

They may be indicative of eye disease, so the only prudent course of action would be to return to the opticians for a check-up.

You may need some advice about that pronounced limp you have developed!

I think another visit to the optician would cure the limp.

I’m being framed here. It’s OK for you all to laugh, but now I have a limp in both legs. She keeps asking me “Which is better. This? Or this?”

Sounds like you're not limp in the third leg.

Can confirm that if you have a screw loose the opticians on ground floor of Midlands one stop will sort out your needs free of charge.

I believe JC3 is OK now too, now that the young optician has given him a screw.
