Hope it's okay to start the new thread (not sure if mods have to do it).

I posted this right at the end of the last thread so just carrying it over as it has me driven demented.

I have a question on this subject.

Get that seen to. You wouldn't know what you'd pick up from a nail. I am once again reminded of my friend with the slabs. I have a pair of engineer's boots with more steel in them than an M1A1 Abrams for this very reason.

Ahh Canadian ladies get a pass on that one, the accent just makes me melt!

It's just, how do I explain... those people that ask loads of questions, and you know they're holding back and humming and hawing so eventually I just snapped - "Just fcuking spit it out will you!", "Sorry", she says... and I just told her she didn't do anything wrong, there's nothing to apologize for!

Then this morning I was on my way to work and a lady who was coming against me goes "Sorry", I mean, didn't even bump off me, was a good foot away!

I know it's politeness or it's something or other but it drives me nuts, because they'll say sorry for something trivial, but when they fcuk up, they won't accept that at all! :pac:

My feet are sweating buckets, I'm low on socks and all I own in the way of summer footwear is a pair of cheap Penney's flipflops. I refuse to wear flipflops as they often are made of cheap plastic which cuts the between-the-toes off me and outside of the beach, they are just not practical.
No, a pair of hiking sandals are what I need. Alas, a decent pair are at least €35 and I'm broke 'til Thursday.

Aye, same here, though the one time I went to Corfu and the heat was 44 degrees...

Declaring I'd sooner walk barefoot that wear those things, well, it wasn't the brightest idea when the tarmac was melting on the roads!

Ohh dear, just spotted a chap who definitely wanted to be spotted in his flesh colored short shorts and highlighter marker green vest!

Couldn't take my eye off the shorts so I didn't see his footwear...

REM's "the one i love" is so romantic. So is "every step you take" by the police. Let's make that our wedding dance song.
and bruno mars about looking for something stupid to do getting married, that's romantic too.

Boat-shoes are great regardless of the heat, they're so light. I'd have thought sandals would be even worse, providing no barrier to all that superheated air. And stop looking at that man's arse - he might call the police!

Grown men going around in short pants and sandals or those stupid-looking furkan plastic shoes with holes in them. What in the actual fortified furk do you think you're doing? You look like an orange, overweight ostrich. I saw one disciple last week moving a bunch of heavy concrete slabs in preparation for taking them up a ladder, short pants and open-toed sandals on him and all. Cheeses. Mary. Joseph the Carpenter. :mad:

I reserve the right to remain silent...................but, with the exception of the socks, guilty as charged.

But I wont, for any reason wear crocs, the reason for this was specified in a post a couple of months ago;)

Oh gawd, I remember my little sister getting an allergic reaction to bon bons and having to get it. The screams of her, they could probably hear her in Australia. :pac:

So I tried out the flipflops- fecking useless things. The back kept smacking against my heel as I attempted to walk. They're fine enough on linolium, carpet and wooden floor but as soon as I try walking on tarmac or anything resembling a footpath? Nope, uncomfortable, useless things. Fortunately, I only spent €2 on them so I'm not THAT much out of pocket. Time for the annual trip to Dunnes...

Flip Flops are grand for short periods. But if you are planning any sort of walk longer than 5 minutes, you are going to have a bad time.

I'm just going to put it out there, I am toying with the idea of trying on one of the new style of crocs.....just to try them out. No commitment to buy, just to try.

I don't get all the hate for Crocs. Okay, so they look a bit childish but sure if you're comfortable in them, so what? Buy them if you want and feck the haters.

This is the thing, you see - I'm just not comfortable looking like I'm on a day-pass from somewhere nice and safe and cozy.
