What? like an arthiritis riddled 80 year old?

well I've only been able to lace-up shoes in one way so unless my way is the "correct" way I've never been young enough

i tried on a pair on TK mAxx this morning and i coudln't work out how to lace them up

they had two tongues and two sets of laces, one cream and one black

lol I am picturing you trying to look cool in tkmaxx

sooo funny

they do look complicated- I am way too old for them

Alternative method

KristinaM · 11/11/2009 20:45

thank you macdog. that looks much easier

i shall consider going back to buy them now, though suspect that ggirl is right

perhaps i should stick to the home dept - i got a lovely HUGE table lamp today for £13 ( clearance). i was OF COURSE looking for Christmas presents for the kids
