General chat.& Random stuff

I wear DM shoes to work. A bugger to break in but like a pair of slippers now. Notably last 5 years, so the ones I’ve got have another 3 years in them. I had Oxblood DM’s back in the day, mine were a very conservative 6 holes.

 

Bought my first pair of wash to shrink jeans at phils - you could stand them up when they were wet - Jet Heavies!!! and of course Ben Shermans before the skinheads hijacked them

 

Back in the day I got old girl to stitch bottom of jeans/staypressed tight to my Martin's cos if you could get a finger between em the boys took the piss saying they were flares !

 

I have a pair of 4 hole boots ( for comfort more than style) although I may treat myself this Xmas to go for the retro look ,

 

I resisted the yellow stitching as they were work shoes.

 

not in 1972 they weren't

 

You wouldn't have been impressed with these then

Good stiff breeze and you'd float along

Highlights of the game that was played against a Brentford B side yesterday. Benda makes two mistakes that almost resulted in goals. Two penalties for the Swansea XI

Manuel Santos (Garrincha to his mates ) and no he never played for Wales , but against us in 1958 in the world cup

 

The photo was at the Maracana in 1966. Brazil won 3-1

 

Leeds United:

“Following the announcement that we unfortunately had to postpone our match with Aston Villa today, Leeds United have worked hard to link up with various local homeless charities and foodbanks to donate all the food that would have been used at the game.

Earlier this morning around 2,000 pies (chicken balti, peppered steak, cheese and onion and meat and potato), hundreds of sandwiches, as well as eggs, vegetables, salads, and fruits, were distributed to or collected by volunteers at St George’s Crypt, St Vincent’s Homeless Shelter, St Anne’s Resource Centre and Holbeck Foodbank.”
