    Oh that wasn't too bad - I had visions of you having to wait for well over an hour.

    That one is a Fossil and ..... you don't want to know :eek: - £6.60 (which is about what I expected).

    TBH tho' I am glad I did bring it all the way in as I really was about at the limit of how far I could walk & I'd have really struggled if I'd have had to walk somewhere to get the bus.

    Don't know why walking on pavements / roads / concrete makes it so much worse - I guess walking on the beach / in the woods the ground is softer and probably lessens the impact.

    Do they fit!

    Honestly - no, it wouldn't have been that, more walking on the pavements / uneven ground outside.
