Pip! There are some really nice floral print ones and flamingo too!

Aw, I feel like giving emma a socially distanced virtual hug now. :hug: Buy some real strawberries, that will help. I had my first ones of the year today and they were delicious.

To be fair, I think those crocs are perfect for establishing social distancing. Steer clear! Steer clear! :))

I bought actual strawberries today too! A HUGE 1kg pack and they smell amazing. Also some of that extra thick double cream :love:

You're all mocking me but I'll be very content in the garden, drinking my wine out of a can, wearing my comfy crocs.

Oh, if they're just for your own personal use, crack on!

My garden strawbs are really coming through now. For a glorious fortnight.

Oh I fully intend to wear them in public. If only to watch George die of embarrassment at the school gate :))

Don’t do it, Pip. Step away from the croc enabler.

I gave in a bought a navy pair for putting on quick by the back door to go out with dog when she needs a wee. However, I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t worn them to work and the supermarket:lol:

I'm all for comfy stuff but Crocs are a whole different level of hideousness.

I mean, maybe if you're a nurse or a carer and you're going to get bodily fluids spattered over you on the regular, but otherwise, there's no excuse.

I once broke up with someone for wearing crocs, but was looking at them just now thinking, Oh those would be nice to wear on the deck...

I’m assuming it was probably a man (no judgement intended), but god, the only thing worse than a woman in Crocs is a man in Crocs :cry:.

Yes, he is a man and had the nerve to justify his Crocs ownership.

An old boss of mine had a photo of his family on his desk and all of them (including him) are in crocs. :no:

Kids in crocs are actually sweet but adults? Nope.
