Do you ever find things that you haven't seen for ages, and they still fit?
I know we don't really grow after about 18 (except outwards!), but when I try on something I haven't seen for years, and it still fits ... I'm still oddly surprised.
This week, looking for something else at Mums's, I came across a bag with my old dancing shoes. I'm not sure why, but I brought them home, and they still fit.
Well, they would, I suppose.
They have these sort of felt textured bottoms. They're a bit precarious to walk around in.

Did I ask that already? (scrolls up ...) ... aah, yes, I did.
It was bought for the wedding of an ex girlfriend of Mr Cake. It was imperative, to me anyway, that I looked my best.
I have a very vivid memory of walking out the Armani store and straight into a wine bar and ordering a large glass of wine to help me recover from the shock of what I had just done.
When i was 16 I was 5 foot tall and weighed 8 stone.
When I was 25 I was 6 foot 2 inch and weighed 15 stone.
I am now 62 and am 5 foot 11 inch tall and weigh less than 10 stone.
Lesson to be learned. Don't work too hard.
