Martin B Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 I'll do just that Mel Thank you very much I feel really bedraggled this morning. We have had the biggest storm here this morning and I got soaked walking to work Just looking out of my office window and it is like night outside, really dark, apart from the lightening and pouring with rain Just added that to my list of simple pleasures - but being INSIDE when its pouring with rain outside That's what I'm doing now!

We have had the biggest storm here this morning and I got soaked walking to work Just looking out of my office window and it is like night outside, really dark, apart from the lightening and pouring with rain We've got that weather too Debs It was fine when we left for school, so we walked - the heavens opened as we reached school, so by the time I got to work the bottom foot of my skirt was drenched despite having a brolly . It's really dark, thunder, the whole lot - I love stormy weather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paola Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 I finally succombed and became a croc owner last week - £25 - bargain! I have to admit that I went for a rather soft green (sage) rather than the pink / purple / gold ones - still not QUITE brave enough to wear totally funky shoes! They are SO comfortable - but have had to cope with (& Paul) going and callling them my "hospital shoes" or "mental institution shoes" I said they were my treat for finally hitting the 11 stone mark (going down not going up............!) I cant even IMAGINE what he would do if I bougt the butterflies etc to go on them oh hang on a minute yes I can....................... My OH is the same I keep on seeing people in crocs and am very tempted I do love the bits you can stick on them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feemcg Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 I have the Jibbitz website on my favourites but hav'nt bought any yet. Anna has pink croc wellies (Georgies) but I promised her some jibbitz when I get her crocs in the spring.Think I'll get some black crocs now as my pink ones seem a bit bright for winter - i do love them though!

PurpleHen Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 In case this hasn't been mentioned before - there are loads of these on ebay, they came up when I went looking for crocs. Anyone else bought crocs off ebay? And are the sizes pretty normal (I wear 6.5 / 7 - so would expect to go for a 7)? And another thing... are they good for winter too?

Cinnamon Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 And another thing... are they good for winter too? Well, the Jibbitz would be good to block off the holes & stop the rain gettiing in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel (& Paul) Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 sorted I have only been a croc wearer for a week but i LOVE them - I do wear them outside - but only in the garden, most of the time I wear them around the house - keeps my toes nice and warm and stops me stubbing them on furniture / discarded dog's toys / anything else that is lying round ( (& Paul) for example...........) I have very narrow feet and I tend to wear about 4 1/2 to 5s My pair are size 4 and width 6 (which is, apparently narrower) Now, if only they did chicken / dog jewels I would be happy (and (& Paul would have me committed..............)

Dunno about the adult sizing Jackie - Rosie and both wear the kids ones, which come in definite sizes I got ours from jellyegg.com, who were very helpful on the phone and gave advice about sizing. I wan't sure which size I'd need as I am 2.5-3, so they sent me both a 2 and a 3; I just sent back the ones that didn't fit for a refund. Hope this helps.

Mel (& Paul) Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 and chickens and Claret - do you think the Bulldog jibitz on page seven looks a bit like Minky,................ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 ooh, posting at the same time Claret! - great minds think alike Commitable mad-women more like Yup it does look a bit like Minky. Rosie has added all the sparkly ones to her Christmas list , she doesn't know, but she's getting a bright pink pair for Christmas after coveting someones at the Omlet do (was that Trish?)

Mel (& Paul) Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 I dont think (& Paul) has got over the price of the crocs (the man who wears his PO issue safety boots at all times if possible and doesnt know the true cost of shoes!) so I think that £10 (or so!) for sparkly bits might be pushing him a bit far.

AnnieP Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 (edited) Oh dear.... I can feel my old malady coming back, you know the one,,, trigger finger.... the one that keeps hitting the "buy" button when holding a mouse..... I had pink crocs at the Omlet do Clare..... and I think they need a smiley and a tortoise or two.........

Mel (& Paul) Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 I have shown Paul the site and, as expected he went Then he said if I lost more weight I could order - whoo hoo Then he said if I got to 9 1/2 stone I could have one! I want horse shoes (they could be donkey shoes too AnnieP ) and paw prints He said I only needed one of each I said that would look odd He just looked at me in my jogging bottoms, fleece and crocs and went "come on, by sticking one jibitz on those mental home shoes would make you look odd, but more wouldnt. Yeah. Right" Then he took the dogs out for a walk and I can still here him laughing...................... Men They have NO idea about the importance of shoes and shoe accessories Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Agreed. Best not tell them...... I've just ordered a smiley... well, two actually, you're right Mel, it would be very odd only having one two tortoises and two purple flowers. By the way, if you order 5 of them today, you get a free ginger cat one, so see? A bargain not to be missed....... My plan is to just add them when OH isn't looking, and believe me, he doesn't look at my Crocs very often..... If he does spot them, I'll just say, in a very surprisde voice, " Oh my! How did THEY get there?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 HEHEHEHEHEHEHE I LIKEyour style AnnieP Go Girl I have negotiated Paul down to getting down to 10 1/2 stone - but hey - he never sees me weigh myself, so how would he know what I am Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theherd123 Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 My Crocs arrived today - but oh my they are light weight & very loose are they supposed to be so loose? Cant wait for my Jibbits to arrive! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
