Got parked in the NCP next door. Nice and close (20 yards as the crow flies, 50-60 yards from car to venue.) Boots on, and walked out of the car park. Out in to street in broad daylight. Not my first time in public, but my first time in daylight and in public. No probs, only 50/60 yards .... But out into a fairly active street, especially given its 'out of the way' position....snip....

I really enjoyed it, particularly the pavement excursions.
Were there any reactions to this bizarre & unusual sight? Well actually, I only spotted two:-
1. A security man in Debenhams who’s eyes alighted on, and remained glued to, my footwear as I walked past him.
His face was absolutely blank; it was as though he was at a complete loss in processing the visual information presented to him.
2. Three teenage girls outside Selfridges who followed closely behind us, nudging & whispering to each other. As we slowed down (we'd decided to go back in the opposite direction), they passed by and one of them cast a curious look back in my direction. I caught her eye and smiled at her and she looked away quickly as though embarrassed about something! ...snip....

Next meet i will certainly make the effort to have an all day visit but due to family commitments this visit had to be cut short.
All i can say to any future 'newbies' is that it is an ideal location - ncp car park right next door (not the cheapest but it is London whats new) and plenty of room to heel in the pub on the great wooden floors.
Thanks to everyone that had put in their time and effort to organise things , i would thoroughly recommend it,heeled or not.Its just good to chat face to face with like minded souls!

Notice the number of firsts that we have here. These are the one's written about too. I know for a fact it was Loveshiheels first heel meet and -sm-'s first meet too. That's five firsts.

At the 2006 World Heel Meet we had 19 attendees
At the 2007 World Heel Meet we had 28 attendees
At the 2008 World Heel Meet we had 30 attendees

We have a definite pattern of growth here! If this sounds exciting to you and you would like to experience a World Heel Meet first hand, be on the look out for a new post coming soon.
