I not sure, if I should post this here or the “World of Bizarre”…

For the past week, I have noticed five pairs of shoes suspended, from shoes laces, over a very busy street, about 100 ft up! A pair of child’s blue snickers, two black snickers, two women’s heels. Now here is what I find strange, the first question is why? Then How? It’s very high up, so it’s not as if they could have used a ladder, and remember it’s a busy street. So why would someone do this? huh.gif

Shirini - that happens around here too. Kids prank. They tie the laces together and launch the shoes up there, until the get caught. I have seen them do it before. thumbsup.gif

Yep there has been a pair suspended on a telephone wire above a street round the corner from here for the last two years. One day they are going to come a tumbling down and it'll be an ambulance job! ohmy.gif

dunno bout where you guys live, but round here they do that to show where to find a tinny house.
the houses with shoes over the power lines out front are tinny houses

For all of you who are not up to date with our Kiwi colloquialisims a Tinny house is a house where you can buy drugs . Well at least now we know why your posts come across as being so well thought out Bill ... Which part of New Zealand are you from ?

If you want to really get your boyfriend going, throw a pair of his underware or his favorite article of clothing over the line or a tree. tongue.gif tongue.gif Let him try and get that down.

at my brother's college they have a shoe tree. literally hundreds of pairs of shoes from god-knows-how many years of students. they steal shoes and throw them up there as a prank. it's really quite a site.

I heard that young man... disgust.gif
beware I just may take off my shoes!!!



*oops*

around here, if shoes are up in power lines, or trees it's because a gang member has been murdered.
