When it seemed like News International would send out an SoS I was hoping for a different meaning.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing?

I went shoe shopping on Tuesday (with OH) and today (on my own). It was very frustrating. All I wanted was a pair of not-ridiculously-high-heeled shoes, silver or dark pink. Couldn't find any. apart from a couple of pairs which were OK, but £150. I'm not paying £150 for a pair of just OK shoes.
I've already got a dress - a rather nice mid-blue Ghost dress - and a silk shawl. Have to wear shoes I already have!
And I had my hair cut - 5 inches or so off. And it feels soooo short! It's still bra-strap-length, so not actually that short, but still.
And hairdressers are always trying to get you to do things - "highlights? lowlights? layers? perm?" NO. JUST SHORTER!...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

Spot on, I think! Appear to do something, whilst actually doing nothing.No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -
These are £20 but you have to be a size 5 or 6.
Another one £49.00
Pink court shoes but in fake plastic, £17.000 -

How about a pair of Jimmy Choos for £100 down from £360?

Scratch that just noticed they are used. I wouldn't pay £100 for a pair of used shoes!Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing?

I have paid quite a bit for a pair of decent men's shoes, but I still have them after 10 years. £360 for a pair of strappy fashion items is not a good use of money, IMHO ofc.No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -

So, you wear a bra strap round your head?No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -
My hair looks about bra strap length but actually, if straight, goes down to my bottom.
It could do with a trim I suppose. I'll get round to it sometime.
I went, it finished earlier than I thought,l I could pick dh up at station and have just heated his supper for him.
edit: must not look at shoe links, must not look at shoe links.0
