She I reckon you're right about it being a Yorkshire thing. I used to work at our local mental hospital and in various homes and the favourite colour for men and women was blue. Even my Grandads got a pair of those zip up the front blue jobbies. Even though Grandad is losing his marbles a bit these days, it was my Mum that bought them. Hope it doesn't run in the family! lol Jeanette

Hi She Can't you afford any We might have a whip round to buy you a lovely pair of Blue slippers? Would you like fluffy ones or the bootee type with a zip front that grannies wear luv Bren

flesh coloured lol :-)

Phew....won't be rushing out to buy a pair then, I'm doddery enough without them! Christine BTW She I don't think you told us what colour YOU wear! Lol

Thanks for that She! My excuse on the blue slippers is that I work with the elderly!! Maggy (only slightly loopy)

Mine are pick so I must be ok. Mel

Dont have blue slippers,,,,mine are grey with little bunnies on eating carrots,,,,,dont wear pj's either,,, and in this warm weather i dont wear ,,,,,,,,owt,!!!

Hi Karin, I too don't wear slippers because I can't. I have a pair of Birkenstock slip ons that I use as slippers. Lindy;-)))

Hi She Does that mean that if we are given blue slippers as a gift, we now know what those people think of our mental ability?

hi bren - it must be a yorkshire thing then lol - see you soon flower :-)

Hi She sorry to disprove your theory when I was a Sister on a Phsycie ward the favourite colour was dark red for the ladies and the men liked brown Bren

Well Karen - you have hit the nail on the head! Look at residents in psych wards and nursing homes - they ALL wear blue slippers! I had heard of this theory and put it to the test - when m i l was in hosp I looked around the ward - the slightly loopy people all had blue slippers. she is in a nursing home and out of the 16 people I saw in the lounge 15 of them had BLUE slippers!!!!!! One old dear was at the front door - waiting to go out with husband and I - claimed her daughter had brought her to visit a friend - I looked down - and guess what SHE WAS WEARING BLUE SLIPPERS!

Navy blue mules with a soggy sole at the moment where I was clearing up after young grandson flooded the floor. Have a pair of dusky pink mocassins too. What does this all mean??

I like to go naked, hubby's are blue. ( His slippers I mean.) Susan in Australia

Pale blue sparkly ones for me! It has to be very cold before I wear them though, am a barefoot person really. Problem is I go out in the garden in bare feet too, have trodden on all sorts, slugs etc. nearly got a frog once!! Maggy

I own up - mine are dark blue, sort of suede, mule type, cost a fortune, birthday pressie from family but you can wear them outdoors too. Sue

I've a pair of lilac mule type thingys

Hi She Mine are dark blue very tatty, need new ones I also have a pair of red mules with a woman waving a wine bottle on them & the caption is Mad For It ( pressie from my daughter ) Bren

Jean, No - definitely have feet - and they've been very good to me.

Hi She, No - I haven't got any - feet do get a bit cold though :-)))
