  1. Woodfalls has other branches that have been around for ages, the origional company dates back to the 60s if memory serves me well and when the owner sold it was split in two with one group owning nunhead, Peckham and Brixton (sadly now the owners of that group have retired and sold on) and the other group taking Norwood and Sydenham and they are the ones who opened the Dulwich branch Personally any of the opticians in Dulwich are a damn site better than going to one of the bigger chains like specsavers as they give a much more personal experience and whilst they want to sell you glasses, they aren't pushy or sales orientated like the chains (in my personal experience) But it's always personal choice on where to go and my gut says go where you feel comfortable with the staff and don't be pushed into buying expensive frames if you just need bulk standard "national health" type frames 🤓
  2. What Christmas is over already? boy oh boy it passes quickly these days !
  3. Wake up, quietly weep as Santa hasn't been (he stopped coming when my daddy died) Get up have morning constitutions (a Christmas present to Thames water) Start first family row of the day over to cross sprouts or not to cross sprouts, that is the question Give and receive unsatisfing mediocre presents that will all end up in a cupboard till next year, possibly received from the person I gave them to last year. Eat dry and expensive turkey, wishing for a goose at Christmas, never so lucky. More family rows over who ate all the pies and soggy sprouts Play family game and discover once again someone in the family is good at cheating More family rows over the cheating and which goit puts empty sweet wrappers back in the quality street tin Argue over what to watch Eat boring cold leftovers whilst watching the program I didn't want to see Go to bed dejected and wondering what the point of it all was Sleep fitfully dreaming of a "wonderful life" thats just out of reach Fairly standard Christmas for a lot of people I wouldn't wonder Oh yes and wake up next day with a paper hat around my neck, wine stain and empty glass next to me and the realisation that once again I've failed to see the Christmas classic "Die Hard" on the television Bah bl@@dy humbug to the lot of ya 😎
