    I was advised by a copper to at least pull some undies on and most importantly put some shoes on before venturing out of your bedroom in pursuit of an intruder.

    Apparently when confronted with bare feet, some intruders will stamp on them to disable you.

    And of course having footwear on means you can chase the buggers down the street if necessary.
    What sort of sick bastard keeps shoes in the bedroom?
    Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

        one fed up with the wife littering hers by the front door despite building a shoe storage solution in the porch which she & kids filled up so you keep your spare dress shoes in the bedroom?

          Obviously not the right solution then.

            Do women ever have enough storage space for their shoes?

              That's what I was thinking - shock value at the sight of a stark naked man is valuable, if you aren't yourself embarrassed.

                yes but if I beat her until she does what she is told, I go to prison.

                So a huge shoe rack is the best I could do.

                Just wish she would flaming use it, I keep tripping over her shoes normally with overflowing bin bags.

                My best hope is the cat now uses her shoes to store his mice in, normally still alive, I'm pinning my hopes on that encouraging her to put them away.

                But even if it doesn't I'm still a happy man!

                  and don't mind losing your knackers when they grab them.

                    A pair of pants doesn't offer protection if someone's eager to grab your meat.

                    Go one better and tulip on your hands before tangling with them and they won't want to hang about

                      will prevent the fingernails and provide more resistance than just skin.
