Clarks is usually where I end up too - cause their shops are mercifully small. All those other places feel like airport hangers. But even in Clarks, I still end up staring at all the shoes in confusion, unsure of what I want and whether I actually need them, and what colour would go with black v blue jeans, and why all the cool ones are flat when I need a bit of a heal to at least fool myself into feeling taller, and why I still, even at my ridiculous age, can't get over feeling embarrassed trying them on, and when I do, honestly not knowing if they are too tight or too loose - always forgetting if you go up a size or down a size when buying runners or boots.

Got the worst shoelaces in the world on Amazon. They fell apart in less that a week. I'm gonna leave a bad review for the first time in my life. Can you curse in Amazon reviews?

Can't you get shoelaces in Spar? I'm both appalled and impressed that someone would buy shoelaces online.

I stopped buying shoes requiring laces. The reason being I didn't like the relentlessness of people telling me "you're laces are undone"

Though maybe something more effective would be to have learnt how to tie laces when I was 7 like everyone else.

I have no idea how to buy shoes.

Me either. Well, I understand the mechanics. I just never know my shoe size.
Women act weird when you say you don't know what it is.
I buy a pair of shoes a year. How would I know?

But the spoon is not there

Some idiot cycling on the footpath redirected me out of his way.

I went to a swimming class and the teacher spent almost the entire lesson giving one-to-one lessons to a couple of people and ignored the rest of us. I'm not sure if I'm being uncharitable or not - maybe they needed more help

 

[nooleen]

were they sexier than everyone else?

I'm not sure
