Rockworks have some interesting shoes in their clearance section at the moment.

This is one of the few places in the UK that I've seen Acopa shoes (which I've heard very interesting things about -- this is the company that was run by the late John Bachar). I would be snapping up a pair of B3s in a heartbeat if they had them in a size that might work for me.

I'm not allowed to lift anything heavier than a cup of tes untill after Christmas. I have to do "gentle walking".

Anything that involves my stomach muscles at all is incredibly painful.

Having said all that, my main issue with the surgery was that they sent it away for testing without letting me see it after. Apparently it was all bones and teeth.

I know! I said that and they looked at me like I was strange. Except the surgeon, who was amused.

I have friends who work at the Natural History Museum. They have lots of cool things in jars. But that looks AWESOME.

The Wellcome Collection has some good stuff in this department, too.

I'm confused by rock shoes. I have a pair of 5.10 spires, which were the first rock shoes I bought, based on the fact that they weren't too uncomfortable for my wonky feet. I sometimes wonder if I should get different shoes, or slightly smaller shoes (these are snug, but not even slightly uncomfortable if worn for a few hours, which seems unusual).

They do have B3 in a size which might fit me, but I am RESISTING due to brokeness & also the fact that my existing shoes are really doing me just fine right now. Dammit.
