Good Morning Friday !

Good Morning everyone.

Bit damp and misty here today.

Am going out for the day - or some of it at least - with friends. I need some A1 size card - so that means going to the Range, I also desperately need some new walking shoes! The K Skips I have been wearing for the last umteenth years have been mended so many times there is hardly any original shoe left. But they are so comfortable!

I have problems with shoes as I have long feet - size 7s - and manufacturers seem to think that also means 'wide fitting' which - in my case - it does not! I like really smart shoes - but cannot find narrow fittings in my size - the K Skips were ideal - but seem to vanished from the shops.

Ah well - will see what I can find.

Have a lovely day.

Good morning everyone, mild and dry here again, luvverly...

Mrs B is going to drag me kicking and screaming to the local "designer outlet" this morning. If there was ever a vision of hell then a parade of clothes shops must be it for me. Never mind though, I might be released for good behavoiur after an hour or so, so chin up Barry and carry on....

Have a good day folks.

Good morning all.

ST i'm the opposite to you, my feet are only size 4 sometimes I can even get into size 3, but I have wider toes.

Its dry and mild outside, looks like its going to be an ok day.

Nothing planned for today.

Have a nice day all.

There is one in town, Newcomer, but they only stock wide fitting in the larger sizes - which is a pity as they have some lovely shoes.

Re: Good Morning Friday !

Good Friday morning. I am in the SE United States so six hours behind most of the UK folks

It's 2:30 AM and once I wake up, I'm afraid I'm up for a few hours. This is going to really mess up my normal awake time of 4:20 or 5:00 AM --- blah.

It has been POURING rain for several hours - no kidding. The local weather folks think some of us might see 2"-4" of rain.

We live on a hill with great natural drainage but that great drainage can only handle so much.

I don't do any shopping on Friday, I like to go on Monday when most everyone else is at home or at work

Shoes --- I really miss my "hooker heels" I used to wear for work. I got rid of all of them when I retired. Now my main concern is a good pair of tennis shoes, a pair of tennis shoes that don't look like tennis shoes (Sketchers has some great models) , and duck boots for the barn that don't hurt my feet and don't leak.

I nearly ruined my feet buying cheap boots for the barn -- you get what you pay for sometimes -- the $80 "Muck" brand I bought two years ago are comfortable and should last several years, even with mucking stalls every day.

LOL - I still wear 'killer' heels - but only when going out in the evening, and somewhat lower heeled court shoes for everyday. I don't wear 'trainers', 'sneakers', or anything like that - just smart walking shoes - when I can find the wretched things!
