dangers of flip flops!

Having spent a day out at Legoland I had a horrid blister in between my toe! An injury inflicted by flip flops. Really good ones, Havanas, and super comfortable until they caused a blister!
Amazingly sore and a real lesson in foot pain. Rescued by a silicon tube from Supplefeet.

Thongs aka Flip flops

I have only just realised that the word used in Australia for flip flops is thongs! So there is this wonderful sentence in the article on wearing high heels ; "thongs and ballet pumps not being the best option for women" a quote from an eminent senior Australian podiatrist, Mr Brown. He and I were both quoted in the article in The Sydney Morning Herald.

I shall be very mindful of the word difference for the future!

Australian news!

The Sydney Morning Herald has run an article on high heels. They have picked up on an article I contributed to for the Daily Mail and have run with the headline "Heels not arch villains after all".
How amazing and as I have a best friend in Oz (Angela) I do hope she saw it!
Essentially I am quoted as saying that feet are more strongly placed in a high heel that holds the foot and allows it to arch... I agree!
