Sinister: NHS Specs

[Stanley,L]

Wearing NHS specs in the Eighties for me got cat-calls and "speccy-four
eyes" jokes, possibly because I was only three in 1982 when I got them. That
is the reason, however, that anyone hoping to woo me either has to look like
Neil Pearson, Jarvis Cocker and Peter Mandelson rolled into one, or simply
has to wear big specs and have (consequently) big eyes. It's this that led
me onto fancying... no, that's too painful. That's too, too painful a memory
to drag up.
