As a lurker in SE15 Lidl of late, I notice they have "clogs" - an exact replica of "crocs", but, at about ?2.99 a pair, are a bit cheaper than the ubuiquitous ED footwear of choice for a bit of hectic LL cruising / sport / leisure action


would ED residents go doe the brand or for the generic ?


and why ?

Neither. Crocs on men are just wrong. Very wrong. Thet're actually worse than Kickers.

Clogs are the favoured footwear of Bryan May. Enough said.

What are nice though are Clark's backless versions of their New Yorker wallabees, I've got three pairs, black and brown leather and tan ostritch skin.

i was told by a "footwear specialist" and "expert shoe fitter" (who knew!) that crocs are very bad for

little developing feet. apparently if kids wear them often it causes the bones in their feet to splay, or

spread. just repeating what i've been told (though some evidence might be my son's feet, which after 1 yr

of constant croc wearing are now like fred flintstone's feet... but that might have happened anyway).


anyway, i had crocs and i can't say they damaged my feet but they sure didn't do my sex life any favours.


my advice? steer clear of both!

Tell him. Repeatedly. Until he takes them out and burns them.

It's kinder in the long run.

The yellow Crocs are enough on their own.

You could have also picked dressing five years too young, OTT designer spectacles, weekend-stubble-with-a-Blackberry or lack of a chin.


But not the sling. With the number one ED-parent-hating-snipe being massive buggies everywhere, if you spot a parent with a sling you should rush over and shake their hand (even if it is like grasping a wet cod)

I used to hate Crocs (although they look great on little kids) until I borrowed my mum?s on a Cornish holiday last year. They were great for walking on pebble beaches and in the sea. They now come in handy when washing the car, dog, and mopping the floor!


Agreed, they look daft on fellas!

    • Is  the  decision by the High Court not to  deport an Eritrean man  to France on Wednesday anything other than a massive boost for Farage and reform. Farage has made a commitment for the UK to exit the ECHR which limits the independence of our justice system The UK Government’s “one in, one out” has failed at the first hurdle - just as the Rwanda scheme did under the Tories. To make it even more embarrassing is that the accommodation for deportees   in Rwanda paid for by the UK is now being used by the USA for its deportees. If we are to have Farage thrust upon us as a result of such judicial decisions, then God help us.
    • I recently hired Andy to paint the newly plastered walls in my front room, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the start, he offered a fair and reasonable price for the work, and his professionalism really stood out. Andy has a wealth of experience and was happy to share suggestions about colour choices and paint types, which made the decision-making process much easier. He completed the work within the agreed timescale, and I am very happy with the finish.  What impressed me most is that Andy went above and beyond what I initially asked. He not only painted the room beautifully but also helped with extra tasks such as putting up the wall bracket, curtain poles, and curtains, and even gave me a hand moving furniture between rooms. That level of support is rare and very much appreciated. If you’re looking for a painter and decorator who is reliable, trustworthy, reasonably priced, experienced, and willing to go the extra mile to help, I would highly recommend Andy.
    • John recently skimmed the walls in our front room lounge, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the result. From start to finish, he was professional, punctual, and easy to work with.   He arrived on time each day and kept me updated on progress, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free. The quality of his plastering is smooth, even, and ready to paint with minimal prep. He takes real pride in his work.   John was also very tidy, laying down protective sheets and cleaning up thoroughly after the job was done. It’s clear he respects his clients’ homes, which I really appreciated.   On top of that, he’s friendly, approachable, and trustworthy someone you feel comfortable having in your home. His pricing was fair and transparent, with no unexpected costs.   Highly recommended if you're looking for a skilled and reliable plasterer. I’ll definitely be using him again for any future work.
    • You what???   Think you Should have gone to woodfalls 😁
