RATHER than visit my optician in a bid to improve my eyesight I have decided to buy a very fast, very expensive car instead.

The reason for this is that when I was recently driving on the M62 in atrocious weather conditions, I observed that drivers with fast, expensive cars were passing me at great speed. I deduced from this that owners of such cars must somehow have eyesight which is superior to the rest of us ordinary mortals .
