fastfreddy2 Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 Just got access to site and I feel like a kid just got into the sweet-shop with a 'free pass' at the payment counter. I've been wearing heels as a serious interest for nearly 25 years, though not very often for the last 15. [Wife and job(s) took over.] Recently acquired some 4" ankle boots, and I can't take them off. Not making me very popular at home, but hey-ho. Hopefully going to Camden this morning to try some 5" boots (Pleaser Domina 2000) with a view to purchase. If they have my size, I'm hoping to wear them at the 2008 meet next weekend. Can't believe my luck. Find this site 6 weeks after getting back into heels, and there's a public meeting arranged! If this amount of support had been available in the 80's, I may never have stopped wearing them. Back then the only time my heels saw public space was when I went to Maitresse on a Monday night (subsequently became "Skin Two"), or one of the TV balls at what I think was the Queensway Hall. Does any have any idea why we are (in my case anyway) compelled to wear high heels? Quite a common theme is trying on mummy's heeled shoes when young? [sorry, a bit of a deep question for my first post.] Anyway, nice to be here.
jmc Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 Welcome aboard, Freddy! . . . Does any have any idea why we are (in my case anyway) compelled to wear high heels? Quite a common theme is trying on mummy's heeled shoes when young? . . . We get into that question rather deeply around here -- look around through the threads -- especially in the "For the Guys" section. The topic comes up a lot so those threads are always getting bumped to the top of the list. Have a happy time!

fastfreddy2 Posted February 10, 2008 Author Posted February 10, 2008 We get into that question rather deeply around here -- look around through the threads -- especially in the "For the Guys" section. The topic comes up a lot so those threads are always getting bumped to the top of the list. Will do. SNAP .... Maitresse on Monday nights (the boss wondered why I took tuesdays off work every month or so ). ...... and the sporadic events at the Porchester Hall (off Queensway) Dammit .... we could have been introduced 25 years ago ! Xa Aaaaah! That's the place..... I'll see if I can dig out some piccies. Terrific venue. Many, many, interesting people. Welcome to the Heel Meet! That is awesome that you will be joining us. Give cathy and I a call or join us for the the thursday evening dinner at Sergio's and we can arrange a shopping adventure to Camden together. We're at the Astor Court Hotel as of Feb 13th. cathy and david Shopping trip floundered today. Seems 'Pleaser' don't expect owners to have toes? I've got girly feet, and have yet to find a UK size 8 I can't get my feet into, in fact for 'posing' purposes, a size 7 isn't unusual. [used to be a regular size 7 with Cover-Girl shoes, but hey-ho.] Tried the one pair of Pleaser 'pumps' I found in US size 10, only to realise a couple of my toes need to be half-inch shorter. Shame, as I far prefer a shorter toe on a shoe or boot, than is the current style. I'd certainly enjoy meeting up for a shopping trip, but I've done Camden two Saturdays running so need to try new ground. If I'm in London Thursday, I'll have to wander along Oxford Street, and around the corner into Charing Cross Road. My wife (bless her) is understanding of my thing for shoes, but had thought it was confined for days I did the ironing. [Long story.] She even endured walking back home from a 2007 News Years Eve bash, with me having put on an old pair of her [size 6] 3" heeled boots, just for the walk. She has since even 'aided and abetted' my purchase of some quite tarty thigh boots from Priceless. [Which I didn't take off for about a week.] But I'm starting to get the impression she may have (already) reached saturation point..... I'd quite like to go to Sergio's, but knowing no-one there but myself, I've tentatively arranged to have an old (girl) friend come with me. Thursday is Valentines though, and a grammar school education didn't dull my good ladies wit. Her stuck indoors while I'm out (trying) to paint the town will have consequences. [Holidays will have to be booked immediately afterward! ] If my friend and I are welcome, I'm sure we could attend. Hopefully, men in heels is a mandatory condition of attendance? ...
