	I nagged my dear old Mum to buy me a new bag for school in the Second Year. It was from Marks and Sparks, a shoulder bag with tiny black and white checks on it. I coloured in some of the white checks so that one side read PAUL and GEORGE and t'other read JOHN and RINGO strangely enough she was not very amused! :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

	Hello Twiddeley. :-) <3 Belle please dont hold yer breath, you are going blue! ;-) Well.................it has been pummelled well, and yes it does feel softer, but then again, it always feels ok when I first put it on, but after about 6 hours! My Gawd, it pinches like a lobster. I bought these shoes (brogues, I wear Corporate wear in work!) for the Winter, and still have only managed one full day in them. :-( I shall ask him to have another go. :-D
