  We don’t need a new digital id, we need new ventilators for babies and bullet proof vests for soldiers. Or, being a bit more serious, why not use it to extend HS2

  A 200% increase might mean from 1% to 3%. Also, this sounds a lot like blackmail.

  I wish my SO would understand this… she leaves me in the dust (see also comment below)

  I’ve worn progressive lenses for nearly 10 years now. I did get one pair on the cheap, and they were truly awful, unusable. That’s when I figured out that going cheap with progressive lenses isn’t worth it. That may be what has happened to you. Even with good lenses, it takes me a few days, maybe a week to get used to them when I get a new pair. Stairs are… difficult though, especially going down. I live in a busy European city, so I use public transport a lot, and that means lots of stairs. I can no longer run up and down them like I used to.
