New gliggs

Girlfriend Clare is of the opinion that I actively seek fads and that my need for a temporary addiciton helps me get through the month. This patently isn't true. I dont seek fads ... Im just the type of person that stumbles across them. Take today, for example. Its a sunny day and Im squinting practically all the way to work. Although you cant see any stress lines on my forehead (I checked in the rear view mirror) I can feel them and can massage them away (whilst looking in the rear view mirror). So I thought "Why not get some sun glasses" - actually thats not true. At the weekend I had that thought and even went so far as to walk into Topman Liverpool and try some on only to place them back after about five minutes later because £12 seemed a little expensive for no name, p.o.c shades. No, today I thought "Must remember to check out ebay for some shades ... maybe Ray Ban's". I choose Ray Ban's because that is the only manufacturer of spectacles that I can recall. So I have a quick browse on ebay, searching for retro looking shades similar to those I was trying on in Topman; and I find the Ray Ban Wayfarer. Now, I didn't know that these shades had a cool, clique history until I do a bit of research and find this site dedicated to them and their wearers; most notably the Blues Brothers. So as soon as I know this I gotta have them. Okay, perhaps thats a bit of fad-seeking but ... I did stumble across them and just because they're cool should I be punished for that? So I place a bid on ebay and get on with my dayjob. On the way home 'Boys of summer' comes on the radio and guess what I hear?!

You got that hair slicked back and those Wayfarers on, baby

Smiling and squinting all the way home I bound onto ebay only to discover that I've been outbid. Placing a final bid for £21.01 (seconds before the auction closed) snags me the gliggs for a mere 2 pence more than my rival was willing to pay. He who laughs last, laughs longest.
