My journal alternates between domesticity — wonderful to live, so dull to write up that it bores me — and geekery. I must improve my repertoire.

[Poll #237190] [Poll #237191]

Life has been pleasantly domestic, thank you. I have spent much time at home with [livejournal.com profile] redcountess and a bit of time with [livejournal.com profile] arkady. It's REALLY REALLY GOOD, even if I do still have to show up at work.

I need an icon for domesticity. I'm thinking a 1940s family around the radio, but other suggestions are most welcome.

Maybe we could dress you up in a french maid's outfit complete with feather duster, take some shots and make an icon out of the best one?

You mean you've not done this months ago? I'm disappointed!

Not yet.... ideally I'd like to find an outfit in black PVC, but the main sticking point is finding proper shoes. Diva takes a size 11....

Plans are afoot however. ;-)

Things could be worse. You simply have no idea how hard it is for me to find stiletto heels in a (Brit) size 13. Yes, I set off Bigfoot track sightings whenever I walk around barefoot; why do you ask?

Hayway Shoes?
They do a stall at Whitby and can do custom sizes.

Indeed. However they'll have to be mail order, as we shan't be at Whitby this April.

Hayways, rather annoyingly, do not appear to have a website....

I've seen Hayway at various London fetish fair thingies.

Evans go up to a size 10 - if he's a smallish 11 then this might work.

I don't go to fetish fairs, for personal reasons.

A ladies' 10 won't fit, unfortunately.

http://www.hayway.demon.co.uk used to be their URL. Unfortunately it appears to be blocked from work, so I can't check. This might, of course, be a good sign.

It'd almost have to be a created one, wouldn't it? Happy 40's domestic scenes aren't as populated as real life...

If you start smoking a pipe you are so dumped.

Mmm, clovey goodness!
Must remember to play hunt-the-gudangs when in Chinatown at the weekend.

It should be possible converting rolled cloves to piped cloves... Hmm, a straight pipe and a fez, then join the Swedish Toy-car And Intoxicating Liquids Association?

Has two kids, and a guy with a pipe.
