Ahhhh. Whole of Series 3 available from Amazon, £5 - £6. I got a lot of time for Anna, there's something wayward about her.....? But that series was waaaaay too gritty for me.

Yum yum. Not a shoe to be worn, obviously. More >> here <<

Looks like it might be in London Boulevard?

I don't know, was it a mistake to keep it to yourself? Would early disclosure of your 'dark secret' have prevented an otherwise successful relationship? If yes, it would have prevented it, then you made the right decision surely? The correct balance (for you) remains true, in that you'd rather have the relationship, than fully indulge in your high heel boot interest? If on balance, you'd prefer to have the chance to wear boots as-and-when over your current relationship, then a 'confession' is in order. But, is there no way you could have both? My personal experience suggests, most people can be talked into most situations. With regard to my wearing a heel, I'm not suggesting anyone I know has agreed to me wearing a high heeled shoe (or boot) 24/7, but wearing one during suitable occasions doesn't seem to have been an insurmountable event for most. Even a lady I used to work with, who seemed (and seems) about as regular (vanilla) a person you might expect to meet, wasn't phased by me wearing a heel in front of her. She once even warned me there was someone else around, and rightly suggested I should put my man's shoe back on? [Helping me to keep my secret, a secret.] Have you perhaps already broached the subject, and got a negative response?

Try harder. I'd settle for a poor quality vid BTW.

Maybe 4-5 years ago, I would have said only a high thin heels 'counts'. When I first met other men in heels, high block heels seemed like a half measure? Possibly, not really a high heel? Experience (mine) suggests the following: Wearing a high thin (thinner) heel out amongst others, is probably for evenings, and probably at venues far from home. (I almost never wear a heel at home.) Wearing a heel in public, in daylight, will have others noticing your heels. The higher the heel, the greater the likelihood of a 'tell' from how the wearer walks. (Girls are not immune to this change in stride/gait either.) Someone noticing this type of movement, will look. A slim heel hides nothing, a block heel has the chance to trick, or at least seem ambiguous? I usually wear a thicker heel in public to disguise my footwear style. I also wear a thicker heel to help prevent serious damage from faulty or damaged pavements. On balance, my preference is for a slimmer heel, because they generally look more elegant, and they are harder to walk in. (Less stable.) I also like a high wedge too, as I think they accentuate the curve of the rise. Again, a reference to elegance. Regarding a shoe with a 4 inch heel and having 2 inches hidden for use in the work place; This seems like a good idea. A 2 inch visible heel suggests something not-quite-manly, without being effeminate. Tolerably different? The extra hidden 2 inches would for me at least, remind me I was wearing a heel, and affect how well I walked while wearing them. I doubt I'd forget I had a heel under-foot. Aesthetically, the shoes/boots are unlikely to light any fires. My guess is, they would feel better than they'd look? That said, they were designed (specified) for function, not looks? They sound ideal for a workplace, with very little opportunity for being caught as a high heel wearer. I would expect comments on a 2 inch heel. ("Hello shortie!" etc.) I might expect less humour and more (light) abuse on a visible 3 inch heel.... I'd suggest the right choice was the first choice.

I think our attitude toward this, is going to be very dependant on just how much heels are a part of our personality, our history, our life? My wife is very tolerant, of just about everything. We could not be together if it was otherwise. I doubt my heels will ever cause her to leave. There are numerous, more important issues that could create that situation first. As far as me in heels is concerned, we have reached 'common ground' and we both understand what the limits are. These are mostly my abilities (I don't wear 6" heels as I can't walk well in them), and appropriateness. Meaning, I don't wear a 5" patent stiletto out shopping, any more than most other women would. If things were different? Could I give up wearing heels to keep my marriage intact? I could, but I doubt I would. Honestly, usually I prefer to have company to being alone. But I could manage if I needed to. Plus, there are still plenty of single women about also looking for company. Would I have to search for long to find someone who would accept my interest? I hope not. I would certainly look at finding one optimistically. Thankfully the decision is not expected to arrive at my door.

Not only the best shoe collection on the site, but possibly the best love life too! Hard not to be jealous.

I'll have to wait. Us poor people can't afford Sky. Sounds interesting though!

Newspaper report >> here <<

Yes ...... Bit frustrating at times, but we did eventually meet. Report and some piccies to follow.

Well ....... Looks like we are having a meeting 'afternoon'. I shall be meeting Euchrid first, with Heelwearer24 joining us a bit later. If hh4evr1 gets away early from his morning appointment, he may well join us at the revised location, Oxford Street. But, it's on.

Bit of a saga, but definitely a Truth Stranger Than Fiction Story ..... The £1 to cover the early relisting never arrived. I eventually re-listed the boots anyway, when the aucton site gave me free listings. Sadly they didn't sell, but I'm having a bit of a sales drought anyway. Disappointing but ...... So imagine my surprise when: 1. An identical pair of the Carvela's I'm selling, sold for MORE than I listed mine at. 2. They were sold by the girl who had bought hers from me. [Who argued the makers didn't size them correctly.] And who then used MY photo's to sell them! 3. Her buyer was the same fella who wanted me to re-list my pair immediately, and bid for her pair (that I had sold her in the first place), paying more than it would have cost to get them from me? I have 5 star ratings, by the way. My Description rating did take a dive when 'missy' who bought the Carvela's, gave me a 1 out of 5 rating, despite her knowing Carvela confirmed my description was accurate. Funny little world ........ Her listing - for reference.

Armitage Shanks will be getting a phone call from me tomorrow, and/or B+Q ...... The fill hole in the cistern is undersize. I can get the filler tube in, but the washer that centres the tube won't enter the hole. Worse, the filler touches the side of the cistern, except in one position. I can get a piece of paper inbetween, but it has to be in EXACTLY that one position. I either need a large diamond file [15mm diameter being ideal], or access to a good quality sintered diamond core drill. Not happy.

I hope you've had a doctor look at it. There's a lot to damage in your knee ..... Had a mate who liked to play football, snapped something in his knee. ['Crucial' something or other?] Was not nice. The repair operation was okay, but the subsequent physio had him crying at least once I know of ..... Glad to hear things are improving.

I had no idea there was a plastic version. Had a quick look on Screwfix to see what they are like. Not much good news with the reviewers .... This is not an unusual experience from reviewers, as with your own difficulties ? I think I'll be sticking to my 'Old School' metal ones.
