hi court!

Thanks for the great links!

Maybe we'll meet up one day, as you are not that far away after all, and I'm at least thirty minutes west of toronto.

hugs,
Jan

Hi Jaqn,

I can't help you with the bra :), but for shoes I use the spring clips often found on kids' coats. You can get them in any colour to match your shoes and they work really well.

Narelle, Michael, and anyone else interested, I know of an easy way to keep shoes tied and easy to do with one hand. My husband is a runner/triathlete..... and has loved using 'Easy Laces" because he can slip his shoes on fast and they stay tied. Easy laces are elastic shoe laces with a fastener that you can tighten if you need to - but basically they transorm all tennis shoes in to slip on shoes. (I really sound like an advertisement! - sorry!)
The only places we have been able to find the laces are at Running stores - or on-line.
Sports stores do not seem to carry them for some reason. They aren't expensive, and my daughters who also are runners, have them on their shoes too. I am planning on getting more for them for all of the shoes that need tied - they are so easy and quick and look sharp too.

Here are some links if you want to see how they work:

Hope this helps,
Christy

Hi Jan,

Next time you are at the mall, check out kids' winter coats, even adult parkas, they will have little spring clips on them that slide up the drawstrings or laces and will hold them tight. They are great and I use them on all my dress shoes, and even my squash shoes.

Hi guys while were on the subject of gadgets, and I have read the other posts about one handed playstation controls, but anyone got any idea where maybe in Australia I can get one. I have tried everywhere possible. I am assuming you can only order over the internet with a credit card, but mum won't give me hers to use. Any suggestions. I would be prepared to send someone the money and have them ship one back to me here.....any takers...or suggestions. regards Michael
P.S. Jan I know how to get a bra off one handed but got me stumped how to do one up....ha ha ! !
