"do you think the shoes have made a difference (be it physically or psychologically)?" Not sure... As I don't perceive the "New, improved with added smoothness" thing myself it's hard to say... We'll have to try dancing next week with and without the shiny shoes and see... What I did notice was the shoes had me slipping about all over the place last night, even after attacking them with my suede brush. That's not smooth. :( Gary: figured out again how to do links to put a link to your blog. :) Cheers! Jo asks… “do you think the shoes have made a difference (be it physically or psychologically)?”

Glad you had a good time over at the Edinburgh party and I will come to a Glasgow one at some stage. It was good meeting you in real life.

Seriously though, I did notice added smoothness, do you think the shoes have made a difference (be it physically or psychologically)?
