Bubba136 Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 Is that the Farnborough Airshow? A great place to earn a bit of extra money and wear your heels while working Farnborough Airshow Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.

Fog Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 Has the date been set for this yet? We'd like to come if possible. I'm assuming this isn't a lads only event as my partner would like to come as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Shoe Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 Any saturday other than the 3rd and 4th saturday of the month. Graduate footwear designer able to advise and assist on modification and shoe making projects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new_look Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 am still interested in attending this one, but it is good to know a date a good month or more before, as the cheap train tickets for such a long journey vanish rapidly, leaving the 50-90 quid tickets. from the aug bank holiday, i am off that week on holiday, otherwise am fine for suggested days daz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming this isn't a lads only event as my partner would like to come as well. Hi, the two of us will be coming and I think daz will be bringing his better (sorry daz) half, also, there was a threat by heelfan that we may be able to go back to his place where his wife may well be putting on a bit of a spread for us. so rest assured that it wont be a blokes only meeting, infact the more ladies the better. feel free to PM me if you have any other questions.

Heelfan Posted July 24, 2004 Author Share Posted July 24, 2004 Yes, and Dr. Shoe is hoping to bring his wife Ruth too, so it looks as if we're already up to about four of five lady attenders. I'll try and invite some other lady members like Anne-Louise and Suede too. Thank you for your responses re convenient/inconvenient dates. I'll float a date to you all very shortly now.
