Now by my reckoning, I ought to be able to order four or five months’ supply but Tesco only offer me the option of three, six or twelve months and as they’re blocking me from ordering beyond May, I’m kinda stuffed.

So if I ordered just three months’ supply, what would they want me to do for April and May? Walk around blindly? Use lenses I should have binned?

Stupid system.

So I have placed two order for three months’ supply each! We shall see what orders they will accept…

Two e-mail messages, both entitled “Freedom from specs and contacts with laser eye surgery” but sent to two different domain names and two different users, a “Richard Gummer” and a “Richard Rooke”. Obviously these two names are fictitious and only exist on Frankdata’s spam database.

Optical Express have promised to investigate and get back to me…
