They're much more stylish than the last pair, but they're also a bit more severe.  I really like them, but it's taking me awhile to get used to the new look. I got used to his facial expressions in the other pair and now, every time I turn around to look at him, for the briefest instant, I think he looks really annoyed about something and it throws me. So I made a drawing of him after dinner last night to try to figure out this new face of his.\\r\n\\r\nA dinner, I must add, of a very nice chicken pie that Stuart spent all afternoon putting together. So here it is, and you can see Stuart in his new specs.\\r\n\\r\n\u003Cimg src=\"https://images.jabberworks.co.uk/lj/stu_chickenpie-6fd995d8f7.jpg\">\\r\n\\r\nNo, actually, Stuart does not look very annoyed here,  he looks very pleased, because he was really wanting chicken pie.\\r\n\\r\nWe were reading on the sofa after dinner and I did one of those machine-gun bursts of laughter, which is very annoying and made him jump. But it was also kind of funny because I was reading about just that and I didn't do it intentionally. It's in \u003Ci>Small Island\u003C/i> by Andrea Levy:\\r\n\u003Ci>Suddenly this woman laughed. A laugh from nowhere. No smile or build-up titter. Just one minute solemn, the next a honking laugh, the noise of which could make a pig sit up and look for its mummy. \u003C/i>\\r\n\\r\nI love that. Oh!
