Skirted-UK. I am more than willing to support your praise for Hayway's They seem to be fully customer orientated and deserve all the praise they can get. (See my old posts about them, if they still exist). Regards, TallSwede

From all of me to all of you, a merry merry christmas... Love to you all, TallSwede

I'll just want to add my envious comment about finding a pair of boots so nice and still not wearable... I went through about 30-40 shoeshops (is it?) two years ago and could not find a pair (labeled EU 41-42) fitting my EU 43 feet. Until I stumbled over a pair of ankle boots (labeled EU 41) that fit like a glove... I very soon asked the shop to stow away a second par for me (which the happily did on their second and last pair in that size), but this pair unfortunately lacks the (convenient) space to allow a mens sock between the foot and the boot itself... -Well I suppose the Chinese are not too careful when massproducing for the westerns... TallSwede

-In short, Gina, you look fabulous. I sincererly hope that you get recognized in far wider circles than our forum. Just look at our forum members... (-I know that it is mainly guys in here, but still... -Anyone *wanting* to be *seen* could post and take their chance...), where most of us would have to sit back and sigh at the pictures you have posted, while envying your smashing looks. (-Laurie dear, *you* always have a *special* place in our hearts, do not forget...) TallSwede

Victoria, I'd like to counter with a question: -Are those womens shoes?... You see, I would never bat an eyelid if I encountered a man wearing them. At least here in Sweden we have many models like that (having a thick type of sole) for use during the winter when there is lots of snow or slush on the pavement. TallSwede

Dear Gina, IMHO are you looking really smashing in both pictures! -More, more... Best regards, TallSwede

Stu, About the obnoxious hash codes, are you possibly running Windows NT, 2000, or XP? Regards, TallSwede

Hello TXT-1, -I am sorry to begin with the fact (I hope so at least) that I am neither a girl or having mental defects. -But please stay active with the whole gang here!!! I hope to speak for all of us when I tell you that all your posts are very welcome here. I have not read up on autism recently, but have the feeling that a lot of scientists currently are of the opinion that it is a "blockage" that may be broken by a lot of things. So perhaps enjoying the High Heel interest here might be the "thing" for you that starts the snowball rolling. You have already made over 100 posts here, so it seems like you have found a likeable channel for your thoughts. -Please continue, and feel free to contact me (or someone else who sees and responds) privately if you want to chat without an audience. I wish you the best with your goals, TallSwede

-Even as I *do* have a medical reason (MB Bechterew) for beginning to use high heels, I still only tell close friends (and doctors, obviously) about that part about myself. I find it more fun to verbally "chain saw" anyone trying to pester me about my shoes, more or less nicely depending on the conversations outcome. -As I see it has nobody the right to take offence to my clothing (I am not running around nude...), so the other one by default is on the wrong side in any discussion that occurs... -Just my opinion, TallSwede

Sarah^^uk, I sincerely hope that it is your legs and boots in your avatar... -I wish they were mine TallSwede

Bubba136: -One word, WOW Bert: -I wonder how Hugh Grant could lose a woman like that... Regards, TallSwede

-As Hellfan already told you, You must find out your current "all day heel height" and accept that for the time being. Then you might train yourself to wear higher heels for extended periods until you eventually find that you have reaced your limit due to physical reasons or whatever. Best of luck, TallSwede

Emma is right on the spot! The Swedish word "svarva" is meaning using a lathe to form an object as desired (hopefully... ). Regards, TallSwede

-As the others already have written, You may be proud of your outfit! I wish that I could find boots like yours without having to trust (not) the mail-order merchants (HayWay shoes (Uk) is an outfit that I would like to recommend, though. They are nice on the point of seeming gullible when trying to cater for their customers, so anyone pulling a fast one with them and you have got yourself a enemy for the rest of your life...). Regards, TallSwede

Dear CandiCaine, Why not give us a full picture showing off the whole of you (the face could be blurred if you prefer some anonymity) as I also have to agree that the shape of your legs really enhances the shoes, and therefore would like to see "the whole package". -So unless you want to be somewhat secluded, please do us this favour, Regards, TallSwede

Kobo, I know that I am very late with my response and I am sorry for that. As already have been said, YOU have to decide what feels right and NOBODY else. It is your life and noone else can advise/tell YOU what is the best way to go. You have gotten some very good advice here, but in the end, YOU are the only one to decide how to proceed. I am a "lucky"one as I (really) have a spinal disorder as an "excuse" (I more often verbally disintergrate the eventual commentors (real fun actually)) I myself am happy with wearing HH's whenever I need/want and also nail polish at times when I want to look nicer... As a matter of fact, I am trying to save money to be able to get myself a set of about half inch long finger nails for the christmas (and longer) holidays if I am able to afford them (it's about EU60 and the broken car engine costs about EU500, which also by itself is sobering enough...), anyhow just follow your deepest feelings (unless they lead to prison...) and try to find your own way before the grave. -Cynical mode on: -Life is a series of hard hits, then you end up in a deep hole in the ground; -Just like golf ball... /Cynical mode off... TallSwede

Anna d. I would sure like to hear more from you about the experiences with your new boots. -As I already stated, they are really a smash hit (as far as I am concerned), so please give us (me) some more information... I hope that you would like to post some more info, Regards. TallSwede

With regards to all previous writers like Anagram and the following on the same basic theme;

How about flatties or at least flatfooters depending on how much one want the possible derogatory interpretation to be made of the expression...?

He never said "Play it again, Sam."

-Anita, you know, and I know, he did not say that, but please do not spill the beans... -Still it is my favourite movie! -Hear, Hear!

As an old (bad) saying goes:

-I kill for money, but you are my friend, so I kill you for nothing... (Quote of an long since forgotten spaghetti western) -Or in other words:

-Stand clear of my beer...

Regards,

TallSwede

My very best wishes Michael. I hope you will a happy life together! I also hope that you still will find the time now and then to visit us here. Best regards, TallSwede

JeffB, Lucky you! I sure would like a pair myself... Regards, TallSwede

As Emma wrote, leaving just because of not seeing all of the pictures really is an indication of not appreciating all the ongoing discussions here, which are my main reason being a member of this forum. Happy surfing, TallSwede

Hi JeffB, Are you really able to fit in these wonderful boots? -If so, I am really envious of you as they seem narrow (as usual) along the calf. -Well just as well that these boots have not appeared in the Swedish shops I use to search... Regards, TallSwede

-Well, I prefer to have the "referrer" tag cancelled out. -So it seems that I will have to live without most of the pictures posted here from now on... -The life if full of choices to be made... Regards, TallSwede

Heels does not give me leg problems (except when being without them for long walks, that is...), instead they diminish my back problems. TallSwede
