    I did ballet as a child at a private primary school, we were too young to wear proper ballet shoes. I wasn't very good, but the foot positions stayed with me, so as a 61 year old this arthritis, I am able to avoid many falls.

    Oh such happy memories!
    I'm now knocking on 80, but I still have my last pair of pointe shoes, yes Freed's.I've moved house many times, and now live in France.
    My pointe shoes are in my bedside cabinet and will follow me into my coffin!

    the only ? I thought bloch and suffolk were also made in the uk last I checked, I know though in the states you only have a few models produced by suffolk in texas and maybe capezio if they started doing their custome shoes in new jersey again, gaynor was but the factory they contracted to closed up in the pandemic and just sold off everything so there is not even a chance for it to come back as far as that goes, and few custom makers left that can do it even if they are willing to, as making the box on point shoes is not like making other dance shoes, or percussive dance shoes like types of clogging or tap shoes thats a bit more straightforward.

      The BBC will not correct even after contacting the author of the piece. Suffolk's factory is in Leicestershire, England. Suffolk and Freed are the only major pointe shoe manufacturers in the UK.

      I think the bbc didn’t know Suffolk is a company as it isn’t as major but freed and Suffolk are the only hand made shoes in the uk

    About queen and masons: On December 31, 2018, I was involved in a gas explosion, a terrorist attack organized by ISIS in Russia in Magnitogorsk due to the fact that I smoked weed (calling it gas) and masturbate on a guy photo with a song from a James Bond movie there was a line “always hit the floor”, in the house where it happened the terrorist attack on the 7th entrance, the floors on all floors were blown up. (Mag) because I loved to sing Muslim Magomayev, (NITO) - Nikita Topchy, it’s me. Summer of 2020 they managed a terrorist attack in Beirut. The ship in Beirut belonged to Igor Grechushkin, at the age of 17-19 I knew a girl with the name Vika Grechka and went a couple of times to the Beirut restoraunt. Judging by the actions of the Queen of Great Britain, who gave me instructions what to do to be left alone, it can be assumed that she is above the Masonic Priory and terr attacks is all at her will, same as coronavirus
