Damn right! I don't own any. They are impractical, uncomfortable, ridiculous, and vastly over-priced (in my not so humble opinion).:))

Ladymuck, you are right. They are often uncomfortable, frequently rediculous, and always over priced. But there is just no escaping the fact that they are fabulous, sexy, joy inducing, life affirming boxes of pure happiness. If I ever meet Stuart Weitzman I will undoubtedly have one of those screaming teenage beetlemania moments, before falling into a dead faint.


And I make absolutely no apology for that at all.

If you mean Seinfeld then yes, but a not especially good one


HOWEVER, the sitcom based around that premise is an all time great


Also worth checking out is a documentary about his attempt at getting back into stand-up after years out of the game (in a parallel story with a fairly obnoxious new guy) , called... Comedian

Sexy? Joy inducing? Life affirming boxes of pure happiness?

A good tip for you ladies who, like me, love your shoes. When shopping for shoes I always write my shoe size on a small piece of paper and tuck it into the top of my sock. This saves me having to remove one of my shoes every time I go into a shop.


Don't all thank me for that one at once.

Laugh all you like, it's true! And I fear I am not alone. Mr Carnell, Eddie Izzard (*swoon*) and Dame Edna are with me all the way!

      Car dilemma - do you manage without one?

      🤣 Yes, I can't imagine they'd thank you for that. Sounds like keeping the car is probably the right thing for you.

      Car dilemma - do you manage without one?

      By Sue · Posted

      That ULEZ check is not necessarily accurate, as someone pointed out above. I did it ages ago. I don't cycle. I got a bike, had a space in a bike shelter (in fact requested one on our road), had a disastrous lesson from someone who appeared to think I was about nine years old, fell off and gave up. A refugee now has my bike and someone else has my space in the shelter thing. Our tent is too big to easily take on public transport, let alone all the other stuff. If you travel light, good for you, but my backpacking days are long gone, as are my days of happily sleeping in a tent I can't stand up in! I didn't know about this zip car point to point option. Is that to anywhere in the UK? Thanks but I did all the sums when I decided to keep the car, and the convenience for me outweighed the obviously considerable annual  cost. I don't think an Uber driver would be very happy to convey things like bags of smelly compost to my allotment 🤣 Which I can take on the bus but it's somewhat embarrassing 🤣

      By Earl Aelfheah · Posted

      If you think about the amount you spend on keeping and using a car and how infrequently you use it, you might be better just getting the occasional Uber. We often underestimate the cost of owning a car, as opposed to using a cab. There is actually a name for it in Psychology ('the taxi meter effect'). It's likely you're spending at least £1000 - £1,500 a year on keeping a car (£500 on insurance, £200 on MOT and service / repairs, £180 on VED, Then the ULEZ fee each time you use it, plus fuel, plus depreciation... maybe minimal in this case). If you put that in a separate 'pot' and used it to cover the occasional Uber, you may find your needs more than covered.
