  1. Hi guys.....Sounds like you had a blast! I couldn't help but smile at the pic of you all in the pub,thats quite a gathering. There's only one thing missing ... Kiwi Steinlaggers with frost on the bottles. What a shame I'm so far away, I would have enjoyed meeting you all. Any way, the shoe pic is great and it shows just how much fun you did have. I think the lace up courts in the middle row look kind of cool. Very 40'ish with the brown boots (RH top) looking sleek. The guy Fox is making friends with in the alley shot looks a "bit of a worry" and it seems 'pod has misplaced his Tommy Gun. :wink::D Thanks for the heads-up and I hope you'll keep us abreast and up to date with any future jaunts. My best regards to you all..... Jim

  2. Accents.. Generally I enjoy their richness and diversity. They can bring something special into an otherwise mundane conversation...the texture of the spoken word is enhanced and coloured some how. I think my favourite is the soft, honeyed drawl some Southern woman speak with,and because of it, I can't help but be drawn to them. Strange really, I always thought my least favourite was the Vietnamese. I find their accents and the single syllable words harsh and quite difficult to listen too, but on reflection, my own rather bland Kiwi accent would have to replace it. Jim

  3. I tend to wear 5-6 inches outdoors.

    Six inch heels still represent a considerable height for me, even in my size UK8/US10. I have several pairs in the 5" to 5.5" range but to wear them for 10 hours or so would leave me quite trashed. They are usually kept for evenings out, or other special occasions. Way to many P.L.F's I'm afraid. If you are doing 6"s on a regular basis then I take my hat off to you.

    That's a good point Jo. :wink:

    As I understand it the buyers from here order for next year, so we get the summer shoes that are on the cat walk now in 6mths time.I know we import some stunning cutting edge footwear from Europe. The French, Italian and Spanish shoes are trulysuperb. We also bring in stuff from Oz and the US, it's a lot more mundane tho.There are a lot items shipped in from Asia and we also manufacture here as well. You folks have shoes in your stores that we never see and vice versa.As far as our guys designing heels for your market? I'm really not sure to be honest,but they could be.

    So I will answer your questions with...."yes to all."
