    ouch , no advise to offer Val maybe the shoes are making your feet ankles ache , you know the thing to high to flat, flat as in no heel , i used to spend many hours in steeltoe work boots comfy yes wide yes come the weekend had to slob about in trainers as feet rebelled in anything smart , gentle hugs for non smelly feet xx

    On another thread someone said they fill a hot water bottle with cold water and rest feet on that. I thought that was a good idea. I use bottles out of fridge and roll my feet along and hold them in my hands. I suppose you could put your feet on a bag of frozen peas???


    I am with you on the heat, I wish my fridge was big enough for me!!! :lol:
