Hi Pauline
Teva walking sandals as you describe- brilliant! After I bought my first pair never looked back and it is amazing how warm they keep your feet too!

Tarmac is unforgiving wherever its laid (and so is concrete edging which I also hit - same knee - sev years ago putting rubbish out in my back yard in the dark at 6am...........) As the saying goes 'I'm a walking disaster me'!

And yes Rose I'm totally gone on Teva - anyone who hasn't tried them would never suspect how good they are would they?

Visited the A&E department of our local hospital for X-Rays but they showed no damage to bones. The doctor reckons it's a bad case of tendenitis which time and anti-inflammatory gel will eventually clear up.
Anybody else had anything similar?
I did manage a couple of miles yesterday without too much bother but wouldn'tv want to risk it on the Lakeland Fells just yet.

I'm in terrible pain at the moment. Just started for no obvious reason the other day, top of left foot. It's now so swollen I can't wear my shoes, been out and about in my slippers today. People must think I'm mad.

oh dear - sorry to hear that - it must be worrying if there's no obvious reason for it......

I think I could beat you on the madness-how-it-looks thingie tho: I went to the local Walk-in-Centre and then the On Call Docs with a Buff (those neck-warmer things made all in one peice - better than a scarfe) pulled up over my mouth and nose (had surgery in my mouth) and my Buff is a camoflaged pattern - green and brown splotches........ I got asked was I undergoing terrorist training..........
