I do believe it’s Monday!

.

These boots are made for walking, but whenever I wear them I get lost. I’m sure they’ve got minds of their own!

If I was an inventor I’d create shoes with built in GPS. Just say ‘Sholexa, take me to the pub’, or ‘Sholexa, show me the way to go home’ and they’d do as they’re told.

The young lady that sold me these clodhoppers said they would help with my posture. I didn’t believe her at first but now I stand corrected.

She was a charming girl, attractive too. As she helped me with my purchase, ‘you are so bootiful’ played in my mind. I fell head over heels for her, bless her sole.

I hate shoelaces, don’t you? They either come undone and trip me up, or get so tangled that I can’t undo them. I think all shoes should have velcro fasteners, why knot?

I’m heading out for a stroll now, I wonder where my boots will take me today!

      Thanks Kritika, perhaps I should register it to prevent someone stealing my idea!

    I think you need to get a patent on that Shoe GPS. Have shoe, will travel! 🥾🥾

    What an inovative idea, Keith. Go for copyright for Shoelexa. I totally agree that shoes should have valcro fastners. Nice take.

      Don’t worry I’m going for it! Thanks, Indira.

      Thanks so much for your kind words. Clearly, my Shoexa shoes are stepping forward!

    Loving all the puns, Keith. Also, GPS in shoes – brilliant idea! I’m actually surprised that no tech bro has started selling any yet.
