    We found three old pairs of glasses yesterday, do any opticians in galway accept them for donation to the third world?

    Google suggests Specsavers has/have had a collection going.

    Fantastic - thanks for that.

    (My google search just turned up that Sightsavers don't do it, and I had them confused with specsavers...)

    A friend of mine lost two pairs of glasses recently.
    Maybe they belong to her!

    No, sorry to say they're not hers... they're three of my own old pairs that I no longer need as spares.
