    Of course the sad thing about this post is that, if on the off-chance that it is true (and Faith is the Queen of Sheba :rotfl:), then we have a woman who is more bothered about giving her child what she wants rather than taking the adult line about ensuring that the child's health is cared for.

    Sadly this seems to be the case in many of today's parenting stances.

    It's also sad (if not downright unbelievable) that an allegedly 'best school in the area' would allow fake UGGs as school footwear.

    Mind if anyone wants a pair, in black, real ones from Oz , size 4, let me know cos I think they are bloody horrible and I only keep them as they were a gift
    I wear mine (they are Kiwi make, real sheepskin all the way from NZ) as slippers during winter.
    They're lovely & cosy and as they're natural material they don't make your feet sweat & smell (unlike the fake ones). :)

    This is a completely false thread. Did none of you read the exact same thread when (it) was wanting to buy black plimsolls for (it's) son because they were black, therefore fit school criteria.

    But (it) decided to buy female black plimsolls from - (let me guess) - Primark!!! :rotfl:

    I never believed that post to be real and nor do I this one.
  • This is not false I'm being serious

    'A completely false thread'?

    Well, what is MSE coming to?
    I think I need to lie down in a darkened room. :whistle:
