Now Laura give him his due- they are always more likely to laugh at your shoes than your jokes. This made me laugh- I look forward to knowing how to tell a joke Tommy x

Watch yer mouth Tommy! You've not been shopping with me yet. I'm in and out so fast you don't see my feet move. Actually - I only buy shoes when my last pair are beyond further repair. Work shoes usually last me about 5 years, and me steelies are indestructible.

Ha - you so don't understand the joys of buying a pair of shoes. It's quite an exciting jaunt that entails looking in every shop to make sure you've got the right pair - unless you're impulse buying of course!

Ah, only a stone's throw from Doncaster then. (via interballistic missile, that is.)
I love the gentle jibe at women's shopping habits but maybe that's 'cos I rarely buy shoes - my cupboards are already full of the things and I'm fed up with Imelda texting me to borrow another pair!

The only fly in this ointment that I can see, Tommy, is locating St John's Market.
