In days gone by, if one asked the horsepower of a Rolls-Royce motor car, the salesman would not tell you. They would only say 'adequate'. I'll just say 'enough'. Xa

Silly boy, I'm now dreading the credit card bill !

Anything happening in Birmingham on Saturday? Xaphod is coming over to my place Saturday morning so we are up for a trip to Brum late morning/afternoon. Calv

Calv and Xaphod could make Birmingham Sat/Sun September 12/13 or 19/20.

From Xaphod (posted by Calv) I coud be up for a trip to Cambridge. Xaphod

Both myself and Xaphod should be at this meal Friday night. See you there Calv

I've been on the phone to Xaphod tonight. During our long chat we have booked into the Novotel at St Pancras for the meet. Xaphod will be there from Thursday night, me from Friday night. They have some cheap deals £99 for a twin room incl breakfast Friday/Saturday night. Train booked.. soon be February 21. Look foward to seeing you all soon. Calv

I've voted as a probable, myself and Xaphod should be there, so you were right in your assumption. Calv

I found this video on the Daily Telegraph website today.

Enjoy

My train arrives at King's Cross at 1300.

Calv and I are booked into the Novotel on Euston Rd (about 1/2 mile from King's X)

Please book us both in for the evening meal. (I'm taking a punt that this will be OK with Calv.)

Yes OK by me

Info regarding suppliers of IPA and acetone.

Electronic component suppliers have IPA as a printed board cleaning solvent.

http://cpc.farnell.com/jsp/search/productdetail.jsp?sku=SA00607

I have an account with CPC, and can obtain IPA for you.

Acetone in quantity is available from glass fibre stockists who sell it for use in the laminated glass fibre industry, for example in boatbuilding. I obtained 25 litres of the stuff from a supplier in Portsmouth for use on my boat. No questions were asked for what was a pretty normal transaction for them. Yacht chandlers will sell litre tins of acetone, but, boy will they rip you off !

I bought these for my Mrs on eBay.

Then my neice (who is 21 & 6¨1¨) said she had the same pair in a size 9 - i know shes a 9 as i have clocked her heels when she's visited. Can't find any trace of them on Faith website. Very dull as I would have loved some of these for me to sneak around in!!

Hi Plasmaboy

If I remember rightly those Faith shoes were on sale last Autumn/Winter season. The size 9's sold out very quickly on the website. (I'm a size 9 and that is a style I like) Next have 2 similar styles, one all black and one black leather with wood platform in the range at the moment.

Regards Calv

Hi Many thanks for organising this hotel. Xaphod will be making a booking this week for the pair of us. Friday and Saturday night. Looking forward to the meet already. Calv and Xa

Hi, All, Euchrid has just sent me a text to say that he's on the train, Calv and I are having another cup of tea before we get in the car. See you all at Reading station coffee bar. Xa/Calv

My bike doesn't need any maintenance, I've lost my volleyball net so I CAN make Saturday in Reading. CALV

Hi All

I found this site yesterday (not saying how - I was at work at the time!) and feel that more of you will also enjoy it.

Lots of heels in there as well as clips, pics of celebs and more.

Enjoy - I did!

I'm a size 9 but have a a pair of Hush Puppies wedge boots size 8 which fit perfectly. If this is typical then Hush Puppies fit on the large side. But ..... Yours might be different... Calv

Hi

I use Google maps, which are very good for the UK. They also have a link for the satellite pics of the country.

Try this URL:

Good luck

Calv

Thanks Ilovepumps, I've found them on Ebay now. Regards Calv

I like the look and wouldn't mind a pair of those trousers myself, what make are they please? Thanks for posting Calv

I cant add anything to Shoiee's post so will add my thoughts: A Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everybody on the board. Happy heeling everybody. Calv

I've heard bad things about Howcool and their customer service, which can be very variable. On other forums and this one negative comments have been written. Deal with them at your peril - I wouldn't shop there. Watch out for UK customs charges as well. Hayway sounds the better deal.

Rupert Murdochs News Corporation as Ripoff Merchants - I don't believe it Not cuddly old Rupert , the man who who changed his nationality to earn more profit. Calv

What I meant to say was that the jeans were obstructing a clear view of the heels. I'll agree that the heels and jeans combination looks good. Calv

Hi Valesandelletti and welcome to the forum

Thanks for the links to your Flickr page

Nice shoes there, especiially these pointed toe pumps. The jeans just dont them justice

Finally managed to get a link working to the Flickr page so others can see the photo.
