jo73 Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 Hello all .....been lurking for a long time, and decided to register the other day. 35yo male, living in Kingston, UK, and into all things heeled
Stilettoscot Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 Excellent, and glad you registered! Look forward to your posts! Walking in ultra-highs because it's exciting...and it is!!
t-strap lover Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 Hello and welcome from Texas. t-straps are my favorite style.
Bubba136 Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 Welcome jo73. If your into high heels and you've been "lurking" for a while, then you know what delights await you here. Glad to have you as a member and we are all looking forward to your contributions. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
Guest Loveshiheels Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 Hello and welcome to HHplace. Tell us more about your self. Do you own many heels. What is Kingston like for shoe shops?
PatentHeel Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 Helllo and welcome to HHplace. We all look forward to hearing more about you.
Dawn HH Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 You have a lot of members in England that are interested in " All things heeled" as you are. Welcome and glad that you could join us here. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
jo73 Posted July 22, 2008 Author Posted July 22, 2008 Thanks all for the welcome Kingston is.........pretty rubbish for shoe shopping Having size 9 plates of meat, I'm not very well catered for, but in fairness, most of my heels are 5 - 6 inches, so even if I had smaller feet, I doubt I'd do much shopping there Luckily, I'm only a stones throw from London Do I own many shoes? courts, knee boots, thigh boots, ankle boots, (and some not so overtly feminine shoes for normal everyday use)..........and dare I say......even some Uggs!
Dawn HH Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Sounds like you have a good variety of footwear. No uggs for me, I'm afraid. I don't care for them. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
nhoj62 Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 hello and welcome from another uk member the higher the boot, the higher the heel, the better the feeling!
Puffer Posted September 1, 2008 Posted September 1, 2008 Thanks all for the welcome Kingston is.........pretty rubbish for shoe shopping Ahh, Kingston! Until 1973, I lived just across the Thames from Kingston and it was considered the principal shopping venue for almost everything. In the early '60s, it was certainly the place locally to see and buy stilettos and the fashion-conscious ladies of my acquaintance would make a bee-line there. I'm sorry to hear that the shopping opportunities are no longer so exciting. I remember Kingston particularly for a 'sighting' in around 1963 - a lady of around 35 walking cautiously out of the station into Wood Street, wearing a pair of rather striking royal blue stiletto courts with red heels at least 5" high. I just stood and stared and have never forgotten that image - sheer sexiness! (And I have always wondered - was she wearing them for herself or for someone special or just because she could? I wish that I had had the nerve to ask!)
Beigeboots Posted September 1, 2008 Posted September 1, 2008 Hi and welcome. I'm also quite new here. I wear a size 11, luckily I found a few places that stock the kind of boots I like, in my huge foot size.
mtnsofheels Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 welcome to Hplace Jo73, I am sure those meat plates would fit in a buffet of shoes and heels no matter where they shopped. Welcome! Mtnsofheels
Puffer Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 Hi and welcome. I'm also quite new here. I wear a size 11, luckily I found a few places that stock the kind of boots I like, in my huge foot size. What style of boots, Bb, and where have you seen them stocked?
roniheels Posted September 27, 2008 Posted September 27, 2008 Hello and welcome to HHP.Hope to hear more from you and your interest in high heels. Welcome again.
Dawn HH Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 No matter where you can find heels to fit you, enjoy buying and wearing them in good health as long as you can. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
Guest Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Hi Jo73 Like Puffer I also originated from the kingston districts having departed in 84. Still think the one way system goes the wrong way, miss the Jolly Brewers and The Three Fishes Welcome to the forum.
Puffer Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Like Puffer I also originated from the kingston districts having departed in 84. Still think the one way system goes the wrong way, miss the Jolly Brewers and The Three Fishes One way system? Ah, yes! But it was much better when Clarence Street and Eden Street were proper roads and inhabited (pre May 1962) by trolley buses going in both directions. My first Saturday job was at Bentalls in 1965 - paid 80p a day if I remember correctly, 10p of which went on my train fare.
