I was very flattered yesterday to be invited to my first 18th birthday party for ummm at least 25 years. Builder Bloke and I were on Mohito duties.

Talk about feeling old though – being surrounded the most gorgeous bunch of girls in very short skirts and very high shoes is enough to make any 40 something woman want to climb under the nearest duvet and never come out again.

Just look at this selection of legs attached to very high strappy shoes. I’ve never been able to wear shoes this high:-

    I know. The Queenager complains that she hass fat knees. She doesn’t. Anyway, I’d rather my knees were fat than wrinkly that’s for sure.

    I love nearly all of those shoes… only problem is walking in them is nigh on impossible!

    Gorgeous! I always look twice at a pair of legs like those when they walk past me remembering that my own used to be pretty okay. And now they’re not.
