Don't, whatever you do, leave them on a patterned duvet cover. I've plonked stuff on top of them and nearly sat on them more than once.

Edit: Mine were so light, they would even blow off my face in the wind!!

Daft thing is I now have to wear them all the time so it is only when I am showering/dressing/sleeping they are off and I do not close them and yes when I had just reading glasses I used to use the neck rope!

You can get a cord for them so they drape from them neck when not being worn

Chris, I am always losing mine (not rimless I'll add). I only wear them for laptop/reading they're a nightmare. I put them down and then forget where. Once I went into a rant and accused OH of having moved them, when he shouted "They're on top of your head"!!.ooppppppsss.

I might get flashin ones...........I might not lose them so easily then..

Has anyone notice how difficult it is sometimes to find these when one has taken them off and laid them down?
