    Do your toes need to be completely covered? There's a pair of woven sandals on M&S, is that the type of thing you'd be thinking of or do you need something more sturdy and more covered?

    I've done 4 loads of washing today. 2 lots of bedding that wasn't quite ready for doing but it seemed a shame to waste the drying weather so it went in.

    Think the weather is set to last which is nice for everybody who's usually cooped up at work. xx

    My sister likes Hotter shoes for the summer as they are very comfortable and have holes in that keep your feet cooler. She doesn't like to wear sandals. I think she gets them when they're on sale as they can be pricey.

    I'm glad you're enjoying the sunshine Beanie :).

    A wee bit out of my price range I am afraid.
    Loving the sunshine :)

    There's one of these near me - some of the stuff is expensive, but they have good sales so I always stop by just in case.

    Not come across them before.

    I have looked at my finances and no sandals for me.
