When I worked in Holland I walked into the lobby of a Dutch hotel and saw the most beautiful receptionist behind the reception desk and decided to take her back to the United States instead of a pair of clogs. Good decision. We have been happily married for over 45 years. Nice puzzle though.
That is nice to collect something...when we had our motorhome and traveled..I collected timbles from the different places...most not expensive and didn't take much room

Coffee, as with most things, is always better when shared with a friend. May your days continue to be lovely, aussie!

Thank you aknan and darambo, it all started when I came home from Europe and was sharing a house with a young music student. I found an old wooden clog under the house where the laundry was and thought I would fix it up one day and keep for a souvenir. Took a number of years to do this, but when I had fixed it began to see clogs everywhere lol, hence the collection.

Just backtracking on puzzles I missed. I think those are two right feet and not a pair. Anybody else think so? If they were a pair the painting would be reversed horizontally plus the upper shoe is definitely a smaller size.
I have had a lovely day today, spent almost two hours with a dear friend talking over coffee. And it was lovely.

God bless all of you and may He provide you all with a lovely friend. Hugs.
