I'm looking through Gary Gilmore's eyes

Some advice to glasses wearers - get one of those little screw-driver jobs and tighten the screws which hold the lenses in the frames. Go on - never mind whether they're looking loose or not, just give 'em a twist.

Otherwise, a lens will drop out of your prescription sunglasses without warning and, if you're moving at a brisk pace, you'll tread on it before you realise what's happened.

Bollocks.

You can get screwless glasses ?

Ah, do you mean the ones that are just bendy rather than hinged ?

I have one pair that are bendy (and only half-framed, so they don't have screws around the lenses either), and one pair that are hinged, but use a clever arrangement that mean the hinge itself doesn't have a screw in it (so the moving part of the glasses doesn't have anything to fall out ;)
