Have noticed that on www.snaz75.com they have ballet boots which are around $140 - try this link: http://www.snaz75.com/boots-thigh-high.html?pageNum=4

Those are lovely boots - very nice indeed

They're from River Island - they were in the sale for £35 ( from £95). Black patent leather, 4 inch heel and the brightest sole I've seen - bright greeny / yellow. But she loves them which is the main thing. If only I could persuade her to model more of her boots but she's totally camera shy.

Thanks for that Chris Zips on the outside are purely decorative. The heels ( which I forgot to mention ) are only about 4 inches, so she's barely taken them off so far

Shows very badly doesn't it? Well it worked in preview so if anyone has any clues, please advise

We got these last week - not a brilliant pic ( there are 3 zips onthe outside of the boot but doesn't show well)

Talking of Divine, they're having a big clearout of a lot of their styles now (including their ballet boots which are absolutely gorgeous if you like that sort of style)

Laurie - does this mean you are the exception that proves the rule? If so, then the truth stands.

These are known to be universal truths and have remained so since the beginnings of recorded time. 1) Moles are always smaller than you imagine. 2) At the end of every party there is always a fat girl crying. 3) One of the most awkward things that can happen in a pub is when your pint-to-toilet cycle gets synchronized with a complete stranger. 4) You're never quite sure whether it is ok to eat green crisps. 5) Everyone who grew up in the 80's has entered the digits 55378008 into a calculator. 6) Reading when you're drunk is horrible. 7) Sharpening a pencil with a knife makes you feel really manly. You're never quite sure whether it's against the law or not to have a fire in your back garden. 9) Whatever your age the desire to make plastic dolls shag is almost impossible to resist. 10) Nobody ever dares make cup a soup in a bowl. 11) You never know where to look when eating an apple. 12) Its impossible to describe the smell of a wet cat. 13) Prodding a fire with a stick makes you feel manly. 14) Rummaging in an overgrown garden will always turn up a bouncy ball. 15) You always feel a bit scared when stroking horses. 16) Everyone always remembers the day a dog ran into your school. 17) The most embarrassing thing you can do as schoolchild is to call your teacher mum or dad. 18) The smaller the monkey the more it looks like it would kill you at the first given opportunity. 19) Some days you see lots of people on crutches. 20) Every bloke has at some stage while taking a piss flushed half way through and then raced against the flush. 21) Old women with mobile phones look wrong! 22) Its impossible to look cool whilst picking up a frisbee. 23) Driving through a tunnel makes you feel excited. 24) You never ever run out of salt. 25) Old ladies can eat more than you think. 26) You can't respect a man who carries a dog 27) There's no panic like the panic you momentarily feel when you've got your hand or head stuck in something. 28) No one knows the origins of their metal coat hangers. 29) Despite constant warning you have never met anybody who has had their arm broken by a swan. 30) The most painful household incident is wearing socks and stepping on an upturned plug. 31) People who don't drive slam car doors too hard. 32) You've turned into your dad the day you put aside a thin piece of wood to specifically stir paint with. 33) Everyone had an uncle who tried to steal their nose. 34) Bricks are horrible to carry. 35) In every plate of chips there is a bad chip. 36) Triangle sandwiches taste better than square ones.

Apologies in advance if anyone or everyone has seen these before: Why does your gynaecologist leave the room when you get undressed? If a person owns a piece of land do they own it all the way down to the core of the earth? Why is it called Alcoholics Anonymous when the first thing you do is stand up and say, 'My name is Bob, and I am an alcoholic'? If you mated a bulldog and a shitsu, would it be called a bullsh!t? Why are they called stairs inside but steps outside? Why does mineral water that 'has trickled through mountains for centuries' have a 'use by' date? Why do toasters always have a setting that burns the toast to a horrible crisp no one would eat? Is French kissing in France just called kissing? Why do people point to their wrist when asking for the time, but don't point to their crotch when they ask where the bathroom is? Why is a person that handles your money called a 'Broker'? If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests? If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, then what is baby oil made from? If a man is talking in the forest, and no woman is there to hear him, is he still wrong? Why is it that when someone tells you that there are over a billion stars in the universe, you believe them, but if they tell you there is wet paint somewhere, you have to touch it to make sure? Why do they call it an asteroid when it's outside the hemisphere, but call it a haemorrhoid when it's in your arse? Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you but when you take him on a car ride, he sticks his head out the window?

A few years ago I was working for a footwear manufacturer who had one factory dedicated to producing shoes & boots for Marks & Spencer. They produced a new boot and it was only when 20000 pairs had been shipped to various stores that the complaints came in - no one had checked the zips, which went up okay but positively refused to unzip. This came to light after one lady was stuck in them in a store for around an hour before the boots were cut off her.

Even 10 is difficult - and its nigh on impossible to put them in any sort of order. But here goes some fave films: 1) American Graffiti 2) The Italian Job 3) Monte Carlo or Bust 4) Pulp Fiction 5) Desperado 6) Lock Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels 7) The Good, The Bad and The Ugly The Godfather 9) Goodfellas

I bought my girlfriend a pair of rubber thigh boots - they do look great. Yet another pair to add to her collection - thank the lord I can buy them all at trade prices otherwise I'd be bankrupt by now.

They are - why aren't there more rubber boots around?

Definitely definitely lovely boots.

Hi Thanks for the welcome. The boots in the avatar are some I got for my girlfriend - 8 1/2 inch heel, 5 inch platform as she was determined she was going to be the same height as me. Luckily, not only is she very much into shoes and boots ( she has around 50 pairs of boots) but also likes men in high heels - how lucky is that? Never ridden a bike in any heels - have enough of a problem just riding in bike boots but you never know, it might be worth a try *L*L*. Bike I have is a Yamaha FZR1000 Exup

It shows now

and now?

hmmm, no it doesn't. Oh well, back to the drawing board

I only ever seem to listen to CDs in the car or at work. This week I am mostly listening to Linkin Park, David Bowie, Nirvana and Simon and Garfunkel.

Vauxhall Astra 2.0, 97, TVR S2 ( but thats in bits as I'm semi restoring it). Do motorbikes count too? Have a Yam FZR1000 and girlfriend has an FZX750.
