Thats exactly what i'm doing today the sun is shining and i have hundreds (well not quite) shoe all lined up drying in the sun, having scrubbed them with Jeyes, i used a scurbbing brusha and knife to dig out all signs of mud/dirt, just got them as clean as i could.
Good luck who have you got to ship your stuff, mine come in 17 days I've got John Masons, hope they can help me with stuff as I'm on my own, OH and daughter already there

Hi,

I've been doing that this week too, our shippers are coming on Friday so I've been busy with the Jeyes fluid.

The muck etc on the shoes is not a problem it's the chewing gum that's the bugger. I've tried my best but you can still see some marks.

I hope the Jeyes fluid doesn't ruin my poss (but now 3 years old) boots

Good luck.

Thanks

M

lol, i have been at our shoes with a tooth brush, scrubbing brush thingy and also a dentists tooth picker. think i may throw it away now. just had a shipping company out for a quote and he says just cover every thing with jeyes if the customs open the boxes then smell the fluid they know you have been thorough. good luck to you all. i am so jealous we are still waiting to get a date to go.
