M | Hey, due to engeneering works I will be catching the train from Bath to Paddington. Make sure you find me and say hello on the day!
I have spent a lot of time in Bath over the years.
Nigel.

But be careful of parking on estates, they don't always put up signs to say that there are clampers around...

I will have to think hard about what to wear as any serious heels will have to be carried with me. I hope its ok if I turn up only in 4 inch heels ??!!!
Mrs Mikeheel  is ok with my passion but I hope she will find other women there to chat with ,as a room full of men in heels might be overwhelming.....dont want to spoil everything and 'freak her out'!!
cheers

That's great news! The Miller will be serving a full buffet of really delicious food to snack on during the day. You are welcome to ask the manager if he will make you a dish. We will be going to dinner at 17:30 at Tas Ev, a Turkish restaurant and wine bar (vegetarian menu included).
There will indeed be other women present. I will be sure to say hello personally and sincerely look forward to meeting you and your wife.  |

My Mood: Rep Power: 3  | Re: World Heel Meet 2008, London: Sat. Feb. 16th Well, this is good news.
But if I park close by I will want to wear some really high heels and consequently want to promanade first, so '15 feet away' is a bit sad !!
Perhaps we will go out later on and 'show off' !! Might even persuade  to stay for the evening although this means a drag of a drive down the M4 in the dark (yawn).
Looking forward to making some new friends anyhow.

M | Looking forward to see you there. We have the Miller all to ourselves for the first hours so if you want to change in there it is no problem, I did that last year. This year I plan on arriving in style with the tube.  |
