Blimey they're cheap! Just shows how much we're being ripped of by Oakley and the likes. I expect Oakleys are a bit better quality but probably not much.

Having said all that, I am on about my 6th pair of Oakley sunnies 8)

:D :D

Present Sir!

I think paying for the items you mentioned with a credit card should be fine. I think it's the smaller shops and restaurants where it becomes more of an issue.

I also think that when wearing goggles with my helmet it looks less like some great bowling ball attached to my shoulders than when I'm wearing the helmet with sunglasses.

That's probably the reason.

I would say if you were going to be buying goggles then choose some with interchangable lenses. That way you can have the orange low-vis lenses for when it's a bit chicken-soup out there and switch to mirrored for them luvvysunny 8) days.

Obviously you don't have to get mirrored lenses immediately. Perhaps get the googles for this trip and a mirror lense for your next!

I started wearing my goggles all the time this season. My eyes tend to 'squirt' when the wind gets up and I've just got sunglasses on. They can easily squirt all the way to the inside of the glasses which makes a bit of a mess!

According to Windows Media Centre, the Grindelwald episode is on again at 00:30 on the 5th (channel 261) and again at 04:00.
