Shoe Cleaning

I have expensive shoes.  I always have done ever since I could afford them.  Partly, it’s because my feet are small and fairly wide and size six shoes are difficult to find, but mainly it’s because I always try to dress well and good shoes don’t come cheap.  You may be able to find a decent shirt in Marks, but decent shoes never!

I tend now to get my shoes in Busy Bee in Newmarket as there my size six are not the smallest.  Jockeys have surprising consequences for others!  I posted in an earlier blog how I bought a pair of John Spencer shoes there in February.

But I hate shoe cleaning and more than once I’ve ruined shoes by not cleaning them every time I’ve used them.  My late wife always did that and when she died she had an immaculate collection of all the most expensive makes.

I still struggle to follow her example.
