I tried replacing my size 13 shoes after they went missing when we left a restaurant a few days ago…. but they don’t carry that size here. “How about a size 10? that’s pretty big!” the shoe salesman told me. Had I wanted to cut off the toes, maybe.
Two days later the restaurant worker stopped one of our group (someone who was with us when my shoes were found missing) as she passed and said someone had taken the shoes by mistake.. and returned them.
It feels good to be wearing my shoes again instead of water slippers.
