Right, I've just collected the Freecycle Birkenstocks. I need to discuss.

[MamaG]

They fit.
They are unworn.
They are a nice colour.
They are very comfortable.
They are clogs

I think they would be very stylish for hanging out the washing of a morning!

They are a lovely colour, I just can't imagine wearing them out anywhere.

oh i really like them ! colour is great...

waer them you big wuss!

i like the clogs, very good as slippers for in and out of the house, iykwim? the colour... i'd go and get them dirty i think, then they'll be fine.

Noooooooooooooooo. They look like "baby's first shoes". Ugh.

Sorry.

They are 'cyan'. It goes with nothing, NOTHING I tell you.

Shoe dye is about £3 a packet and will sort them out.

I think they are lovely

if they are comfy, be daring and wear them lots

They're comedy shoes. They should be in a cartoon.

Maybe it is that and the white soles I hate so much.

Comfy is very good so yy wear them a lot, but dye them first.

god no, they are horrendous (sorry)

Do you happen to have a toddler with exceptionally large feet about? That could work...

I had some kickers shoes from a charity shop once, bright nasty red, but perfect condition. They cost a quid, I dyed them dark red and they turned into something beautiful. Wore them for eyars

marmite

would work just as well, probably. But it might get sticky.

God they are hideous

Positively orthopedic and not in a good way.

Ah see what you mean

So...do YOU like them?

They're not clogs, they're birkies! Dye them and all will be well - I'd go for dark brown. (Or get some scrubs to go with them and a job as a neurosurgeon)

kickers?

Smear them in marmite
And wear them on the school run

You'll have dogs chasing you for miles

did you not wonder why they were on freecycle?

vile

They're very...er.....colourful aren't they?

Buy some sunglasses and they'll be fine.

I like the style, and although I wouldn't choose that colour if I was buying them, I would wear them because they were free.

I rather like them.... am now worried have no taste....

I know that I have no taste so I don't have that particular worry
