That sounds like some kind of attire in the Alps.

Yuppers. Anyone ends up with a white Bic, they know it's probably mine.

1. A collection of eyeglass screws, reasonably cheap. Everyone says, "oh, you can get them at the local drug store" --- NO YOU CAN'T. I know. I've looked.
2. Travel lint brushes for less than $15. They take like a whole $0.15 to make. Sheesh.

They take all the screws that DON'T fit eyeglasses and put them in those kits. They are evil.

Thanks, clod. Have you dealt with that merchant before?

I too am searching for a box of mixed small screws in the 2mm to 6mm range. Can't get them anybloodywhere.

ETA In the past I have habitually disassembled old broken gadgets to salvage parts like screws. Whenever sunglasses broke I used to collect the remeining screws in a film cannister. I guess I should start doing this again.

Nope, sorry. I usually just walk into an eyeglasses store and tell them my husband bought his glasses there a couple years ago, and ask if I can have some extra screws for him. Mr. Clod also destroys nosepads like no one I've ever seen, so I sometimes ask for some of those too. I know not everyone has my complete lack of moral scruples in this regard... but they've always been happy to just dump a pile in my hand without blinking, so I think they must have huge stock bags of the stuff.

All apartments should be required to have a laundry room. Today I am dragging every washable item I own to the laundromat. What a pain. I have 16 umpteen loads at least. And no, I couldn't get to the laundromat any sooner than now. The next place I live is going to have a washer-drier.
