Paul and Joanne Seymour renewed their vows in Gravesend, Kent. And they did so with a Doctor Who theme. I guess that means that their love is timeless.

German engineer Robert Michael patented this “curved shoe” in 1905. It’s intended to increase the length of each stride “to serve for the quick forward movement of people in walking.”
It also beats bicycles because it won’t sink into rough ground. “The user can in walking use a stick as in walking with snow shoes.”
