West Beach. 4pm. Feeling annoyed and pissed off. My shoulder and neck aches from a day of paperwork. The wind is cold and the beach feels empty, unfriendly and wild. Then here is a red leather sandal and I thought ‘ooh a shoe!’ It made me smile and think of sunnier days, warmer days and painted toenails and friends. According to my Grandma red shoes mean trouble. I liked it and wished it well on its travels.
