Yamyam

would that be a male BSH or female BSH?

anyone want to give a size on BSH?

I just thought about how big they'd be if a BSH was the size of my grandad's hand. He could hold a rugby ball end on between his thumb and forefinger EE's anyone?

Francis!

Of course, the beauty of it is that there's no standard, so you have to keep taking measurements

Peace

would love to meet up with other guys in heels. Am located in the midlands, but can only do weekdays if thats any good to anyone.

cheers

Highguy

Depends on the weekday... I could be persuaded to take a day off from the office

Yamyam hi,

It was the Galleria in Hatfield. I think it would be nice to meet up and would be a great confidence boost for my friend but will have to ask him first.

Thought so... I was there on Monday checking out shoes. I'd be happy to meet up there on a Sunday lunch or something. How's early March with you all? Seeing as I can't make SH's Nottingham Saturday.

Please ask your friend - I know how much meeting FireFox helped me!

Nice ones, SH. I have a couple of similar pairs myself, and they're easy on the feet for extended wear.

I never forget completely that I'm wearing heels, but after an hour or so of wearing them it's no longer at the front of my mind. For instance, if I'm out with friends, then I'll put them on, and then just get on with what we're doing, and I'll forget until something reminds me, like having a go on a driving video game and having to remember how to drive in heels. But no, I never 100% forget, but then again, I never 100% forget I'm wearing clothes

Well done, both of you! Which outllet place were you at? If it's the one I'm thinking of, in Hertfordshire, then I may be able to meet you two there. In heels, of course.

I'm interested, but like I said, I can't do Saturdays without major difficulty. So if it's a Saturday, I probably can't make it. Sorry!

I'd love to meet him too!

I don't have ADSL available, so it's Telewest or dial-up here. I use TW unmetered dialup, which works for me. As for ADSL, don't forget it's actually a contended service, with a 50:1 contention ratio. That means that up to 50 users are chasing that 2MB that you're promised, meaning that what you get on the day can be much less. Even business ADSL is 20:1 contended, meaning that there are times when it's on a go-slow. I'd personally go with Telewest cable, as that's the best for me. Ethernet interface, so that I can plug my UNIX computers in, and a nutrient drip so I never need to leave the house again

TallSwede - nice one, that made me smile!

It seems you attempt at a font size increase failed there, yamyam

Yeah, made me look rather dumb...

I got a new pair of boots yesterday, and both of the boots had two labels on... one saying the sale price, the other giving the size and normal price, and of course the obligatory bar code. All was removed swiftly once I got them home, thankfully without too much effort. The non-sale stickers were a little more tricky to remove, but I managed it. Unfortunately they left stick marks, but being on the inside of the arch, I'm not too fussed. It's not outwardly visible or offending, so I'm happy

SH

As long as you managed to get them removed, that's the main thing!

I hate those damn labels!

When I worked at one company, we reckoned that breasts should be sized in the standard unit of BSH, or British Standard Handful. The ideal size, of course, being around 1 BSH each (I'm *so* going to get slapped for this )

Sounds good to me. A face to face meetup is definitely a good idea. Sundays are easier for me than Saturdays, due to looking after little one. Let's go for it. Who else is up for it?

I've worn several people's shoes. In fact, I didn't protest babysitting too much as... I've tried on other women's shoes at the Brum fetish fair, and at other places. In fact, I've had women try on *my* shoes as my heels were higher than theirs

Nice, but if the Kit shoes come up small I don't think I'd be able to get in them

Yamyam, if you can find the photo, please feel free to post it.

Xaphod, dude, I know where the photo is, it's just the webspace. I'm working on it

Bah! But you're right, Hiluc. Having said that, I've come to a style that works for me, which is black ankle high heel boots and boy clothes. Things will have to move a bit for that to change.

Cooties are little ficticious bugs that all boys have, if you are a girl age 3-11 or thereabouts, or all girls have if you're a boy age 3-13 or so. think of non-existent (or at least invisible) lice or crabs.

Thank you, Azraelle!

Well, squirrelheels, sounds like we need to be organising a hhmeet in Nottingham

Well, Jenny Falconer is my fave so far I may even spring the extra dosh for MTV

thank you all for all your messages and your welcoems to the board!!

Well, welcome, welcome and welcome!

Is there any place to chat with all of you ?Melanie

Have a look around the board. You'll probably see where to say what you want to say somewhere. And don't worry about making a mistake, we're all fairly tolerant of mistakes. Oh, and as for worries about parents, I'm one. I'd echo TallSwede's comments about being careful on-line, but otherwise, enjoy the ability to talk to people from all over the world! I'm in the UK, for instance. I wish this kind of thing had been around when I was 14. It'd have helped me no end.

I have to confess that I can't be there. But I'll be thinking of you all. ObShoe: How many of you will march in heels?

Very special - I'm almost losing my irrational bias against cowboy boots I recall seeing a similar pair elevating Xaphod, and they looked way cool. I have a photo I need to be posting somewhere...

Uh, what are 'cooties'? But I'm *so* glad that 'brain' got in there somewhere
