Here it is folks.....no head shots please and keep it (relatively) clean!

I'll start with this one...complete with head shot....but only because I have a niggling feeling I have met him somewhere....I am just too afraid to try to put my finger on it....facepalm.gif

Yes, I wear socks with sandals (and yes, I'm a Brit).

In my defence, your honour, I don't wear white socks, and I don't wear socks with shorts.

I have awful stinky feet (you do not want to go anywhere near my trainers) so sandals in the office, exchanged for site boots in the car when heading out on site.

Socks and Sandals is DEFINETLY a British Thing...

I must admit I wear Flip Flops 24/7 and according to the Fashion Police they are Naff too...

Oh well C'est La Vie....

Not just British, I have seen plenty of Germans with socks & sandals.

Maybe a European thing.

You do realise dear chap that the bath is not just for storage of coal.

Tally ho.

I only do if I take cleats off and we are going to get something to eat on the way home because sometimes the feet are dirty......

There are low socks that when matched correctly with dress sandals look good with beachwear.....however

The high black sock look on pasty white legs is horrid and these people should be towed away by the fashion police.....the usually compound it by miss-matching stripes and colors strutting around feeling marvelous.....Can't think of another country I have seen it in.....

I wear socks 5 1/2 days a week to work but as soon as I am home they come off and into the laundry bin. Then if I am going out I put on my trusty Crocs..... ohh my god !! I've done it at last.... I've admitted to wearing Crocs.

Can I get therapy for this affliction?

Sometimes i rub a blister or have a cut and need to put on socks other than that i don't ,

and most times, i am going around with nothing on the feet around the home.

I go back to big heavy boots and socks when back to engineering and thats makes the feet soft , so nice to get air around the feet.

Maybe Dr. Will can treat you for this affliction.

Not only foreigners wear socks in sandals.Also Thais wear them to protect the feet from dust or bacterial infections. It depends on where you are and the season. I wear socks in my sport shoes, but never with sandals..

I've never understood why so may people are obsessed with this. I could care less how old farts - or young ones - dress.

My grandmother always said that those silent but deadly farts young or old always came out in carpet slippers, never in sandals sock wearing or not.cheesy.gif

What a great idea for carpet slippers.

Is that another TCI product?

Dr Will has been rather busy with his patients. Costas is of course always a patient of concern

I have sexy feet and sexy knees. I am not going to deprive this world of objects of beauty by wearing socks and long shorts or pants. If you want to see what I mean, come around - admission is free on holy days.

It's because men do not look after their feet. They chop at their toenails once every six months and are perhaps embarassed about the open toe regime of sandals. Whereas, us ladies look after our toes and toenails. We can go from wearing socks and snowboots to sandals in a jiffy. I know i can. I do my pedicure at least once a week. Stick my feet in a bowl of hot water, trim, etc, Just like you would do with your fingernails.

Do you leave your fingernails to go dormant for months on end? I hope not. So why leave your widdle toes to suffer...

And i can tell you - to see the state of men's feet sometimes is a real upchuck. They can be polite, well dressed etc but to see feet that haven't seen air since they were toddling around in granny's garden is a no no.

Checking through my old albums tonight I came across an old picture of Neverdie that I have which was taken at Lancaster Gate Beach.

I noticed that the same type of picture is used by Smokie in his opening post but I do believe that this is a photoshop of the original Neverdie picture.

Recently I have been giving viola lessons to bangkokjulia (in my humidity controlled storage center), so at the moment she is heading my suspect list of foriegn operatives who had access to this picture.

Investigations are ongoing and we are hoping to jump to a conclusion within the next 7 minutes.

It's the willy warmer which upsets me.

It's a know fact, if your feet are warm ie the socks then your whole body is warm. So why the extra sock?

A ha ha ha - it's an ozzie thing, a bit of kulcha,

I always wear socks and sandals, and don't have any problems with my feet, and I never wear shorts as I dress for both comfort and appearance.

Being a handsome guy, appearance means a lot to me.

You can't smell pictures, what about people with foot fetishes? they may appreciate feet pictures.
