    Maz - I have two pairs of footie boots but they are both size 6 - and two pairs of socks (one blue, one black) that should be fine - if you want the boots (I know they are a bit big) then let me know and I'll bring them to Leeds this weekend anyway. No training gear sadly as I wear it all for running now, but a nice pair of boys gloves as well - should defo fit as I have very small hands ;)

    Thanks for the slap Sally and Z thats what I'm hoping for :p


    Becky - thanks so much. You should stick the boots on Ebay hun, there is definitely a market for them.. i was outbid on 2 pairs... mind you i ended up winning 2 different pairs, so she is now well off for fitba boots!!

    If you can spare the socks you'd be doing me a favour! Are you dropping stuff off at Travelodge anyway? Otherwise i can reimburse you for postage...via a donation to your charity page if you prefer!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    Yes, thy shall not sell to under 16's.

    Thy shalt not fill up a non-approved container with petroleum spirit (though strictly speaking that's not really true).

    Thy shalt mark thy container "Petroleum spirit - highly inflammable" (though people just seem to get away with putting "Petrol" on...
