An olde worlde remedie is to rub glycerine on the lenses. That also helps too prevent a mist up.

If it weren't for beer and sex than cycling would be the best thing in the world.

Yes Ratty but I also want to see, don't fancy stuff smeared all over me specs, is that the stuff you put on your hair to make it shine?

I use it for making a sort of sore throat drink: put a teaspoon of honey (set is best) in a glass. Pour very hot water (not boiling) water over it and stir so that the honey melts. Add one teaspoon of glycerine and the juice of one lemon. If you use boiling water it kills the vitamins in the lemon. The glycerine soothes the throat, vitamins help to cure the soreness, and the sweetness of the honey makes it more palatable. It can also be used when making merangues - I think it makes them smoother.

Also used to make royal icing softer, so you don't break a tooth when you bite in!

 ;) I use it to keep leaves shiny when I dry them Ratty, you put them in the glycerine, like holly leaves, when you see the drops coming through on the leaves, take them out then bingo, they stay nice and shiny. 8)
