yikes, they are cool shoes!

you haven't made a fashion faux- pas, Parliament are just full of drossy boring old farts! As mush as I love brogues, I think it's good to make a statement with your shoes, so don't worry about it!!!

Oh I don't know!!!!

They seem perfect for Parliament:D
The place is full of real pitchfork holders anyway:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Don't think they'd actually notice another one joining the club

Even worse, those don't look too well made... Glued soles oh dear. Your £35 would have been better spent buying a pair of welted shoes second hand and getting a shoe repairer to give them a good servicing...

I hope you put your heart and sole into it!

By the way, I'm sure Lembit will love them :-D

Looks like Martin...

those shoes are pretty dodgy without even looking at the soles.

Nice pension/annuity faux pas on TV this morning by the way. People look at you as the money expert Martin, so if you're going to comment on pensions at least get the basics right. It's no wonder people are so often misinformed.

Hi Brian

Thanks for the rather agressive note. Wasn't aware I made a faux pas on annuities this morning, so if I did it could've only been a verbal slip rather than anything more - one of the consequences of doing live TV. What was it?
