Whu do people do this? is it because if you fail to notice the first one, you should get a second chance of seeing the other one?

If you've broken your glasses and haven't got a spare pair, you won't see anything! I've got so much that's required in my car I can't fit the shopping in.

You sure that's the right website address?

No, but I have other things to do beside post useful links for other folk,
if you have tinternet which you must do surely you can play with the words

Thanks for that

Jeezo.

I merely came on here to ask for assistance based on people's experiences. I've never been to Alicante airport nor Torrevieja so I was hoping to take advantage of this forums local knowledge.

Have a little search on Google yourself, all you get is agents etc, and none of the websites you come across mention anything about payment methods.

I hope I don't get lost when I'm in Torrevieja and have to ask you for directions

Anyone know what the legal requirement is ? Fire extinguisher, torch etc etc ?

Many thanks...........

I have been told that you have to carry a spare pair of spectacles, if you wear them.

Yes you do have to carry a spare pair, god knows why cant remember the last time I broke a pair of glasses whilst driving
