Day Seven : White Shoes....

Date : Tuesday 7th January 2014

Time : 08.44

Location : Broad Street, Birmingham

GRRRRR....

It is very rare, an occasion where I am not wearing white shoes*. I think it's probably time to change that.

This morning, on my walk into work (after a terrible nights sleep thanks to the rain) I made the criminal error of stepping on an uneven brick. The result - dirty, muddy rain water spewed all over my nice white shoes. 

This annoyed me because - 

(a) I was already in a bad mood as the rain kept me awake from 5.30am (that's a rant for another time!)
(b) I had kept these shoes in fairly good condition since I'd got them.

Unfortunately, there's no fair medium when looking at white shoes. They either look embarrassingly ridiculous because they're so white they can blind you. OR, on the flipside (an occurrence I'm all too familiar with) they get to a stage where they're so dirty you wouldn't have even know they were white in the first place. 

THERE IS NO WINNING WITH WHITE SHOES. 

What annoyed me even more, is that the exact same thing happened this afternoon on my walk HOME from work. So now, I have a splat mark on my left shoe, and my right shoe. Great.

Lesson of the day - GET DIFFERENT COLOUR SHOES. 


*White meaning white when I first brought them!
