Cosy Toes

It’s the middle of winter and my old slippers just weren’t keeping my tootsies warm enough.  They had soft soles and my occasional trips outside walking over a damp path to the letter box or the clothesline weren’t helping at all.  It was time to go on a slipper hunt.

I visited the local shoe shop in town and the friendly young lady helped me out.  Nothing bright or garish for me – I wanted blue.    There were several pairs available which would suit my requirements, ranging from cheap and cheerful to more expensive and well made.  In the end I decided that nothing beats quality and chose a pair of navy blue sheepskin moccasins.  Then came the surprise.  “Do you have a Gold Card?”, the young lady asked.  Of course I do, I’m a Superannuate!  That gave me 10% discount off my nice new fluffy slippers.  Now I’ll have nice warm cosy toes this winter.
