Lou - its likely then that they arent designed for long distance walking in sadly...you could try compeed and give them another go later in the week and see if they break in a bit more...
Sorry dont have any other advice...
Thanks anyway matey xx
I think that heel grips may be the answer will have a look in Boots tomorrow.
In the meantime I shall slop about in flip flops
But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.0 -
Ames, it's your Oh? who wants to get his own food? and your sister should be gratefullo for whatever you give her - especially as it's not your job to look after her, she is old enough to look after herself, and do what the rest tos have to and get part time work.
Sorry, this is a pet peeve of mine as i have had to look after myself since i was 17 and had no one i could go to for help, so when people like you help others and it's not appreciated, i see red!!Cats don't have owners - they have staff!!

Mine is xandros (sp) but you can load any of course...I keep meaning to reload a new one but I do like the easy buttons on this one...hmmmm
You can have windows too if you are that way inclined (god forbid why!)
Also it looks like the newer ones from next year will be getting the new google system...interesting...0 -

You can get heel grips in Wilkinsons for about 80p, don't know if there as good as Boots ones.
No it's not OH that wants his own food money. I'm dieting and trying to eat better, on the advice of an NHS health trainer. We don't eat the same things so it's just easier to give him his own money.Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0 -
