... of getting my shoes reheeled and soled.

My most fave shoes, my babies, my red and black 4 inch stilettoes, that i bought for a tenner a few years (ok 6 years) ago needed new heels and soled. Went to Timpsons in town. Later on i collected them, and they were all better. Gave the guy a £20 note, and was shocked when i got £3.05 back. £16.95!!!

Am i getting old, or was that expensive?

I can't speak for red and black 4" stilettos but everyone I know uses Wards the cobbler on Merkland Street in Partick. Merkland Street is where the Partick bus/ train/ subway interchange is.

I don't think phone numbers are alllowed here but Wards are on Google and a phone call might save you some money.

Alas Wards were useless for resoling my boots, Timpsons got the sole in, alas the pva glue sticky stuff failed after a few days hard hill walking.

Ther comes a time when new shoes take over.

babies are getting worn tomoz. I gonna buy myself (or see if i can charm someone into buying me) a pair of irregular choice shoes for my 40th. They will be my new babies. All i need is a victim. I'm thinking my mum for this. Mr Sticky can't get me them - he's abroad. If theres any foot fetish peeps that want to buy me shoes, i'll happily accept them mind!

must admit i have a few nice shoes, and boots, but these are just so yum. And surprisingly comfy. Although they big heels i can walk miles in them. i walked from Cj's new place to Glasgow Caledonian uni once in them, which is mostly uphill. Thats what killed them.

You should hear how expensive some of Kitty's shoes are... and there's the times she just can't decide between two pairs...

The things we guys do for some action!

That's unusual. What did they do/ say when you took them back?
