Just to go back to the topic of high heels - in March last year, I was walking down the road to the bus stop, wearing medium heels. At five foot two, I usually wear heels of some description, but never very high. (Don't want to look like a small person trying to be tall!) Next thing I knew, I went over on my ankle. It really hurt and although I managed to get to the bus stop, I had to crouch down on the ground because I thought I was going to faint. Two weeks later, I had a lovely time hobbling around on our French holiday (I even learned the French for "sprained ankle", which I actually had the chance to say to someone!) It was "just" a sprain, but nearly a year and a half later, my left ankle is still weaker and slightly uncomfortable. (Maybe I should go back to exercising it...) Looking back, though, I can only put it down to "meno-wobble", because I was simply walking at the time. Have I learned my lesson? Well, I still usually wear low-to-medium heels (still being five foot two!) but I am more careful when I'm walking in them - and sometimes I even wear flats!
