It’s magic

This week we booked to visit the opticians in Troyes to order our new glasses. We’d already been into an Alain Affilou store to look at their ‘Magic‘ range of glasses whilst in Dijon, and we liked the way the tinted, magnetic clip-ons instantly change them into a pair of sunglasses. Convinced they were a good idea, we thought we’d go and see if we could find some we liked in Troyes.

What do you think, did we buy any of these?

The Affilou experience is very thorough, and we loved their talking mirror, that helps them measure and get the correct fitting for your face and eyes. I can’t wait to go and pick them up now.

I think Brian was a bit exhausted by the whole opticians thing by the time we came out so, before heading to MacArthur Glen for some retail therapy, we dropped off at a new Boulangerie that has opened near to the retail park. It was a great place for lunch, and a little sugar hit. We did share the rather large eclair.
