Heels

Well I almost stop wearing heels and not bought any for some months.  Still look on Ebay now and agsin and find nothing to buy. I,ve not got anything to post about.

At the moment there is not always any one in the office.  There is a phone on my brother;s work bench so that he can take messages from customers when no one  answers the phone in the office. He has been told  to answer the phone. The supvisor has two nephews also working in the factory.  He does seem to get afew phone calls from  family members. Why they cant ring him at breaktime on his own phone I dont know.

I pm you the rest

Not sure how to go about.on this forum about whats been going on at work. So give a litte time write thngs down.. There is a them and us at work..  I get to work and stay in the tea room till its time to work, along with my brother and one other. The others goes into the supvisor's office. Two Driver's and 3 factory workers.  Them and us.  I had a big argument with the Supvisor on Tuesday. .As I mentioned before the supvisor was being a jerk.  At the start of lock down brother took a phone call for the supvisor. Well my brother  thought it was the supvisor GF. It turned out to be the GF sister. Supvisor had a go at him for that. .

It turns out  the comany has an issue with how fast my brother works and that when he gets help he slows down even more.  He packs items that been worked on and then gets sent back to the customer.  He has to check and clean every item before it gets packed. It can be a slow job at times. There more work for one person but not enough work for 2 people full time.  He does not stop work all day. The others get to stand about chatting while they doing their job. It the same with me I have to stay with the machine to make sure to keeps working. but I work outside in a shed on my own.

I finish what I could do in  my shed and went back inside the factory.  This was about 45 minutes before time to go home.. I know the supvisor dont like me standing around doing nothing. Which if fair enough so I went to pack some simple item for my brother. My brother was doing some paperwork. One of the drivers had come back early and was also packing.  Supvisor came over and stood watching us for a few minutes.  He then asked my brother why he was doing  paperwork while he to guys packing for. He kept asking the same qustion over and over again did not allow my brother answer.   Supvisor walked away, my brother reacted in a bad way. I could tell my brother was upset about this.  This was when I walked over had a right go at the supvisor for what just happened. . I can not see what my brother is doing wrong. Will add to post If I think its ok to do so.

. Heels are just under 5.5 inches. Maybe not Little Shoe box but I don,t know any other British shoe manufacturer. All I know is that this pair were made in England.

Just had a another look for the sizing.. There is a very faint sizing on the arch of sole. These shoes are infact a size 11 not a size 10 like the seller said. Tried them on yesterday whist wearing a pair of tights and they fit. A very comfortable pair of heels to wear.   What made me buy tthem was that they were real Leather a full 5.5 inches with a metal heel tip and brand new.. Could this pair be from The Little Shoe Shop. There is a faint Made in England on the soles. I think a good buy for once.

Bought this pair. Going have to return if I can . They meant to be a size 10 but there is no size on the shoes. As they dont fit going have to return them.

Nice boots. I didn,t think that New Look went up UK12

Welcome back FF2.  World has changed in the last 6 months. I have to wear full  PPE at work when im doing certain jobs. I wear a face mask with filters, gloves, apron, hard hat  and ear defenders. Work  is much better now, then at the start of lockdown. Supervisor is seems much calmer now. He now comes in late and stays late once we all gone home. Sometimes I do forget about trying to keep a safe distance not that its possible with the work we do. Its delivery drivers that is my main issue now. They come right up to you when needing paperwork signed but could be my fault as well.

Thanks for the tip. Been using the timer, which seems to work okay. Just hard to tell if I’m in the correct position. 

By using my phone I can  see on the screen what Im taking. It still takes times to get a good a photo but the photos are better now then when I used a camera,

   Working on getting some more photos done, but finding it hard to get the angles right! Any tips for taking good shots (if you haven’t got someone to take them for you!)?

Hello and welcome to the site. As for taking photos. I now use a tripod and a clicky thing that allows me to take photos remotely. All I need to do now is set the phone in my tripod and set up my phone to take photo. Stand in position and use the remote to take photos.

Bought 3 pairs from Ebay last week.  This is the first pair that came in the post. Going start to use my phone to take photos from now. So this is a test to see how well it works out.  I also bought a tripod to mount the phone with a remote so I can take photos  of me wearing heels. I should be able to do better photos now

Thanks for showing some of your collection. I have over 80 pairs.

Hello. Please tell us more about your collection.

I bought a pair of high heels from the wish web site a couple of weeks ago. Should of been delivered yesterday but not recieved them and is showing that my heels have been delivered.  Well they not been delivered.  Just tried to contact support and its all automated,  There is no option for me to say I have not recieved my item but the website saying they been delivered.  All  I,m getting that the item is on its way but it the website is showing my item has been delivered.

I thought I show two of my classic black courtspairs

I,m lucky if I wanted to go for a walk I could walk right my out front gate into a forest path within about 50 meters. When I used to take my dogs for a walk on this path it was very rare that you would met someone. 

I,ve started shopping at my local Tesco Express in the evening now and been able to avoid having to queue up.

At the moment I,m working but at the moment not sure for how long. Work has sort of dried up so I don't know how long the company can stay open for.

I don,t wear heels as much as I use to.  I used to come home from work and put a pair on and wear them all evening. These days I start watching TV and fall asleep so I take them off so I don,t ruin my sofa. Most evenings I don,t wear heels at all.

Over the last 2 years I must of only bought 3 pairs. One pair was lost in the post and another pair I returned. Problem I have is Ebay has gone down hill over the few years. i Just cant seem to find anything I like in a size uk9. Truth is I,m not sure If I got my settings to tight and  Im not seeing some heels. I want to see high heels so I have my settings to see only high heels. I dont want to go through 1,000s of flat shoes.

There some new online site such as Wish. I do like some heels for sell on that site so I might risk buying a pair if they are cheep enough.

Ive been going through my large collection of high  heels. Just to see what I can wear. I got about 4 pairs that I cant wear for long. Should try to sell them.

If the supervisor starts on me for no reason there be trouble. Supermarkets are starting to sort them out with allowing afew in at a time etc. Problem is that everyone else has the same idea about walking the dogs in parks and end up meeting other people. Some of my friends have motorbikes and cant go out on their own.

At the moment I,m still having to go into work. Not sure if that good thing at the moment. Supervisor is being a right jerk at the moment. It the way he speaks to some members of staff at the moment. He,s always been bad for this but he,s worse at the moment. He,s having ago at staff for no reason. Truth is I,m looking into this as this can not go on.

With the forum being almost dead now I,m starting to think that no one is even coming to check for any new threads now. All I ask is you post something on this thread just to see who,s still about. With the world being on lockdown now it makes sense to spend little time on this  forum.  I have some ideas for couple of new threads but I want to see people post on here.

Im not able to work at home so at the moment life for me carrys on as normal.

It would make sense this time of year to wear knee high boots but men don.t.  This year has been bad with the rain every day so far. Like you say being able to keep the bottoms of your jeans dry has got to be a good thing.

Those remind me of a pair of Nine West heels that I own. I say go for it.

Ebay has changed in the last few years. Ive only bought 2 pairs of heels from Ebay over the last 2 years. There seem to alot of overseas sellers now. They also asking alot more for their shoes  then sellers based in th UK.

I bought a pair of Only Maker  boots on Amazon just before Christmas. I returned them as felt a bit tight on.  Very easy to do returns on Amazon.
