I just use a pair of Nike basic model trainers (luckily work is quite informal now) - I went to an outlet store and told the guy I just needed something for moderate/beginner use and for £30 he sorted me outI think I saw you in an ice cream parlour

Holiday going well - roistering limited to a few coffee and cakes, a co-op shop an ASDA shop and an indulgent brunch at our favourite beach cafe.
Have done 10K steps each full day so far so well ahead of target - cloudy but not rainy or windy - so that's fine if not perfect!I think I saw you in an ice cream parlour

Did not mean to be so mysterious @f0xh0les- but I always roister in Cornwall. Not because it's near but because it's further away from more people than anywhere else!!. Plus a 12 degrees sunny day in February is like stealing from nature!!
