am going to be on TV!!!Workaholic father-of-three Garry (38), reluctant dad-of-one Jay (39) and nervous father-to-be Stefan (26) spend a week working at South London nursery Magic Roundabout, staffed entirely by single mums.
Career-obsessed Garry wants to prove to his wife Lea that he has the patience and concentration to look after their three kids. But nursery staff are concerned about his unconventional approach to childcare.
Ex-military man Stefan wants to find out if he has the confidence to be a dad by the time he marries his fiancee Claire. But the ‘tough love’ approach he experienced during his own school days seems to translate less well to the under-fives under his command.
Jay’s wife Julie hopes he can learn to enjoy spending time with kids, and cancel his vasectomy operation.

Gary in munich!Fashion is created by a handful of visionaries’This is the motto of GoodLooking Optics. From the inception of the business to now, everything has been about looking good; symbolically, physically and of course optically.Being an independent optical retailer, understanding eye care fashion is a key requirement for GoodLooking Optics staff members. To this end, as part of ongoing training, everybody gets to go to the shows in Paris and Milan. To understand trends before they happen and before they hit the high street.Other than the shows, the educating of the staff in this field ranges from the recent brand training at Luxotica or reading up on brand ethos. The more confident a Goodlooking optics team member is and the more they believe in their frames, will have a knock on effect with the patients. Their fashion savvy radiates to the patients therefore making it more likely that they will come out of there comfort zone.The social media revolution is fast becoming an integral part of how GoodLooking Optics spreads the word of fashion. We have a webcam in the shop, often people will take pictures of themselves wearing spectacles or sunglasses to show their friends and family to help choose!The other big change in the way we market our frames, is our blog. This way people can leave comments and testimonials as well as us blogging about what is cool and on trend (we get 1000 unique visitors to our blog per month)The last of the social media medley is You Tube. We promote different things. From how your spectacles should fit to what sunglasses are on trend.Merchandising our frames to make it simpler for our patients to select a frame has been a work in progress. We have set up four distinct fashion bays named after the fashion capitals of the world. Each with their own clock depicting the time zone of said place.New York: Often described as a fast moving, loud, colourful and ‘where the cool people want to be’ kind of place. Here is where you’ll find all the frames with these characteristics. E.g. Acetates, lots of colour and stand out from the crowd.Paris: Frames with elegant lines, sophistication, classic colours. Altogether to suit a more refined patient. Full frame’s and high quality materials London: We have depicted the City of London in this concept, meaning that within that square mile, you will find a corporate culture, minimalist, direct and no nonsense. Here you will find an exclusive range of rimless and supras.Milan: For us, the start of trends. This is where you will find the weird and wonderful. Most frames on the Milan bay will not hit the high street for 2 years!And finally we have our very own ‘Favourites’ bay. This consists of bestsellers, a collective view from the staff of what is cool, one offs and vintage.The above specifics are fairly unique to our practice, I feel compelled to also point out the obvious, that we stock over 1000 spectacle frames and over 200 sunglasses. We carry a large range of designer brands as well as lesser known but highly fashionable names.These are just some of the reasons as to why we believe GoodLooking Optics should win the title of Fashion Practice of the year.

If you are finding it difficult to focus on both distant and near object GoodLooking Optics Enfield, do not worry! This is an inevitable part of the aging process of your vision – known as Presbyopia. Our eyes age just like the rest of us, and increasingly have to work harder to keep our vision clear and focused. However, if this situation is not rectified, your eyes can become tired, irritated and you may become more prone to headaches.
Standard varifocal lenses can easily correct and support your vision. But for some people these lenses can give the impression of distorted vision (or ‘swimming’ around them), making them feel unbalanced or unsteady on their feet.
with developments in technology, GoodLooking Optics lenses offer a superior solution that will restore the comfort and stable vision you enjoyed before your vision deteriorated.
So what makes GoodLooking Optics lenses so good?
Unlike other lens designs, GoodLooking Optics technology uses both the front and back surfaces of the lens to incorporate more detailed personal prescription data. This creates truly personalised varifocal lenses, which deliver maximum comfort and performance throughout the day.
Value for money
For sharp and natural vision in all direction
GoodLooking Optics sell all types of the highest varifocal lenses. and they offer unbeatable levels of wearer comfort and immediate adaptation form your present spectacles or contact lenses. this enables your optician to specify lenses which will exactly match your needs throughout the day – whether playing sport, doing close-up work or driving. in addition, the unsteady feeling of swim or sway sometimes associated with less advanced lenses is completely eliminated, giving you the clearest, natural, unrestricted vision in all directions.
