Unfortunately for him, I'd already gone over them easily in gymnastics during the summer, so didn't know how to stop at the top. The teacher just missed getting a foot in the head by a whisker!;) I did warn him before I took off!

I only ask because you seem to have 'issues' fairly often, or am I mis-remembering? A 4 mile walk shouldn't give you a bruised toe, is my thinking. Tell me to mind my own business, I shan't take umbrage
Columba Feb 2018 5:39pm, 19 Feb 2018 14,926 posts	Quote Pin Columba (You couldn't take it from here Daisy, all the umbrage is on the 700 thread). Been swimming. Just by way of cross-training, I'm not much of a swimmer.
WtnMel Feb 2018 4:25pm, 20 Feb 2018 985 posts	Quote Pin WtnMel LD - MYOB Seriously though, you're mis-remembering. I don't usually have any problems with my walking boots (or running shoes for that matter). But with my foot a bit swollen (from wearing the 'wrong' socks with my golf shoes) my toe was pressing against the boot, hence the bruising. The bruising has pretty much gone now and the foot feels better than last week. I don't think I'll try running just yet though - will give it a few more days rest. Columba - I'm not really much of a swimmer either. But that doesn't stop me going along to the pool a couple of times a month and doing 20-30 lengths.
