I was recommended Skechers Archfit trainers for upcoming rehab/physio, so I got a pair, and they are definitely on my pleasing purchase list!
Funny enough, I was talking to somebody the other day and I mentioned that every time I see someone wearing Sketchers I couldn't help but notice they're always old people.
Congrats on the grandad pumps, Ol' Timer.

The further you venture into your 50s, the more function overtakes fashion...

TBF, I started wearing Sketchers in my late 30's. Haven't been able to afford them for years, so maybe I"m getting younger!! LOL
(I did look up the Archlift trainers and nearly had heart failure at the price!! Haven't even paid that for a decent pair of stilettos!!! - 85€ here, the Sketchers!!0

I have a customer that gives me six gluten free mince pies every Christmas. Its the thought that counts

I take an odd delight in seeing if I can find mince pies in the shop throughout the year. I never actually buy them, I'm just amused by the fact they're on sale on June...which they often are IME.

I bought a UV torch to look for scorpions in the garden. I've found a couple but they scuttle under a stone when the torch gets too close, no idea how to take a picture of one.
Have a pic of a squirrel from my trail cam instead.
