I got a black pair and a tortoiseshell pair in a 2-for-1 after that, but they were little oblong bastards.

They are little and oblong, and give me a touch of the Nana Mouskouris (which I believe can be cured these days). Because they are so strong, for looking at people, I have to assume that 'looking down your nose' attitude, which gives me instant superiority, hurrah!Clairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01914896847679973163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5853971.post-89612204689289948562008-11-24T21:59:00.000+00:002008-11-24T21:59:00.000+00:00Black would have been classic HP, but I've always ...Black would have been classic HP, but I've always had a preference for the tortoiseshell.
