Ram Dressed As Lamb

 I’m in the middle of a night’s overtime
I supposed to be saving for the electric direct debit hike due very soon.
Total false economy 
Just bought these on line from Harlow & Lloyd


I’ve message a friend in the states who I know would be up and around 
He sent a brief message back

  9. I LOVE those shoes. I like the specific word Ram as opposed to Mutton. Very different image in my mind. Kind of like one of Tom of Finland’s characters in rainbow high-tops.

    Those shoes are great. You need those shoes. And as my Grandma used to say "They'll go with everything!". And I think that's true. Jeans, dress pants, even a Tux! Good purchase. Kaye

  23. Well they'll see you from a great distance walking the dogs in those. A very worthwhile little splurge, we all need some colour to be proud of in our lives.

    Great shoes, you deserve them considering all the good you do in the world, and you will continue to need shoes so not really an extravagance when you factor in the mental health benefits (this is one of my favorite rationalizations for shoe buying, hope it is useful to you).
