Description

Put your best foot forward and join us as we march through the sole-ful language of shoes. There’s no loafing around as we find out what links your pumps to ocean liners, the beach snacks that lend their name to winklepickers, and the connection between the boot of your car and the boots on your feet. Plus there’s a rumour going round that Gyles wears socks with his crocs… or is that a load of old cobblers?

Enjoy Susie’s Trio for the week:  

Ultracrepidarian - a presumptuous critic who offers an opinion on matters far outside their sphere of knowledge 

Estivate - to retire for the summer 

Charente - a sudden burst of productive energy similar to a fit-of-the-clevers  



Gyles' poem was Galoshes by Paul Jennings  A Somethin’ Else & Sony Music Entertainment production.
