Save the Earth

While out and about today I saw a girl wearing the cutest t-shirt, stating:

Save the Earth
It's the only planet with chocolate.

Love it!

Civilisation

We have the idea that the civilisation we are talking about - ours - is in itself something great and beautiful; something too which is nobler, more comfortable, and better, both morally and materially speaking, than anything outside it - savagery, barbarity, or semi-civilisation ... we are confident that such civilisation, in which we participate, in which we propogate, benefit from and popularize, bestows on us all a certain value, prestige and dignity.

Lucien Febvre (1930).

Shoes so not fit for a Princess...

So, I wanted to create a blog. I wanted to share my love of shoes - alas, a really crappy pair turned up tonight and frankly, I'm well over the idea. They are black and fairly plain, but slightly groovy in the picture, 'girl about town/ pretending she's a grown up' shoes. But, in fact, they are pretty frightful nana shoes (and far too narrow for my not so delicate tootsies).

One day I may come to the shoes, but at the moment - I have another mission!

Crime (and I don't mean the shoe fashion kind).
