My feet are not the prettiest in the mostly because of my 'Winkle Picker'' days and the old fashioned football boots.....but i do look after them plus i see a ''Podiatrist'' on a regular basis.......
I never show my feet...dont go barefoot even at home........certainly never wear 'Flip-Flops'' or sandals......Dad also never showed his feet,which were fairly ok...

First off... Ben, I love you to bits, but I'm afraid your thing about feet is your problem.. not that of those who reveal their feet.
Your right Col.......i do have a problem with men's feet...most men neglect them then have the nerve to show them off by wearing ''Flip-Flops and ''Sandals''............i love baby's feet and most Ladies are ok.........

Lol......I really do dress like that when i'm in Spain except with the Tie..........not all the time...never in the evenings especially in Restaurants.......or when at dance venue's.....one of the many things i enjoy about the Spanish they never dress scruffy.......hardly ever wear shorts .....and most wear a suit even in hot weather especially the older ones....where i go anyway.......

As they get older, many people tend to dress in the style (casual or formal) which was popular when they were in their teens & 20s.
i wonder if today's teens & 20s will continue to dress like this when they get to 60 - 70.
Sad thing is Cliff ton....its men in their 60s and 70s that are the worst for dressing in shorts and T shirts even sandals and flip flops..........

Can't believe how low Mens dress sense has become......ok no Tie..but 'T' shirt instead of shirt when wearing a suit.......even dirty 'T' shirt with shorts plus wearing '' flip flops'' or sandals'' showing their hideous feet.all this being normal when just out and about.....and much more.....what do yo think?

I Like Retford too..used to have relatives there....also did a few stints at the Coop.....got a good friend who used to be Warder at nearby Ranby Prison.......oh yes also used to deal with a Butcher there named 'Bacon'.....Rog is the Cannon still there?
Do they still have a football team ? played on their old ground a couple of times.........also played Cricket on a nice ground just before you enter Retford......
So you could say i knew Retford pretty well.......
Also Rog love the 4 cylinder engine.......

Never conscripted, ....he had a job on the railway and it was a ''Reserved occupation''

Have you noticed a 'Subtle' change in mens suits?.....you have to zoom in a bit...what may look like a blue or black even a dark grey....now in most cases there is a faint pattern.....not for me.....nor is White Trainers with a dark suit.....
