… a word from Amanda

Sawasdee. That’s hello in Thai.

I’m back from Asian adventures, having visited what is now apparently a “danger zone”.

I’m not afraid to admit that I’ve been pretty nervous about this whole Coronavirus thing. Not that we were anywhere near China. But Thailand is still South East Asia, and simply walking through Bangkok airport was sinister enough, with absolutely everyone wearing face masks. Including me.

Typically, I bought one in every colour to match that day’s outfit, but obviously it’s a lot more serious than that. 2020 has certainly been a surreal year so far, with Social Media Suicide, Boris’ Brexit Bullshit and this awful virus – and it’s still only February. I’m praying that Spring and Summer bring some brighter tidings.

So, I’ve had a little (Asian) taste of Summer already, and prior to that I had to get my “beach body” ready. Which entailed diet, exercise and the obligatory Pedicure, in preparation for the mandatory flip flops.

But what happens if you don’t have time for that all important Pedi?

Are you concerned about having ugly feet this summer? If so, no worries, we’ve got you covered.

Check this out, which I posted on my socials to HUGE response – people genuinely believed these ‘real feet slides’ actually exist. I feel compelled to properly credit the creators, since I’ve had a lot of people asking. They’re made by a group called Prosthetic Silicone Skins.
