    How long do you have to have owned a brand new pair of trainers for before you start just forcing them off without bothering to undo the laces first?

        In A Recent Scientific Study By The European Commission,Recently Released,It all Depends on how Many Times You Washed Your Feet since Purchasing the Afore mentioned Trainers, and were they purchased in Europe.? Do You Have Your Receipt?
        If Not,Do You Remember the receipt number, Do You Remember Who Sold them to you ,By Name?. What Did He Look Like??

        If You Cannot Answer Seven of the above Questions don't bother to Undo the Laces, As You Have Pinched Them, and You Do Not Own Them.

        And The Secret Police Will Be In Close Touch with you Soon.

        Never Use Force To Undo A Problem.;).;).

            About 2 weeks CL or when you stop getting concerned that you have scuffed the white bits!

              I'd have a word with your butler, tell him to get your dresser to put your shoes on properly. You just can't get the staff these days.

                By the way, I assume by 'trainers' you mean spats?

                  Perhaps you isn't as posh as what I am then.

                    I abhore trainers ... they are 1) not pleasant looking and 2) smell even worse :rolleyespink: although I buy these sprays for such which remain unused! T'other half wears them most of the time and I forbid him to keep them in the bedroom ... they are relegated to his office where he can 'enjoy' them on his own ... :heehee:
