Things you've thought of but are too dull for conversation.

Those bloody slippers! I doubt that they are lasting another 6 months. Grrrrrr.

Anyway, looks like I'm lasting longer than them.

Going to spend more than a tenner next time and do my research rather than an impulse buy.

I bought a pair of these a few years ago, and I reckon I'll be buried in them!

I just looked back and realised that I posted you this 16 months ago. Well, they are still going strong!

They should still be going if you paid £75 for them !!

I don't think I've paid £75 for shoes let alone slippers. £75 seems like they're slippers for a king!

I think looking back to my pair, I got lazy and did all of the things you shouldn't do in slippers, like the painting and decorating, plastering and joinery. A lot was asked of them to be honest. I have jeans and woollen jumpers all in various states of ruin because I tend to just get want to get on with stuff, thinking that I will take care etc rather than change into scruffy clothes. Mrs S gets annoyed. I need to be more of an Italian man I'm told, taking more care of my appearance and clothes. The men's cosmetic and fashion industry would fold if all blokes were like me I bet I'm not alone.
