I would choose to be anyone who could walk in bright red patent killer heels! :)

Give me a while, and I'll think of a sensible option!

To walk in any pair of shoes with heels would be a joy

You want to swap places with Eddie izzard....... Walks off muttering quietly so moffy won't hear

My boss, so that he knows I am genuine on the rare occasion I ring in sick and wouldn't "tut" at me on the phone as if he's really annoyed.

Just anyone who was fit and healthy would do!

As Teddysmum says, anyone fit and healthy would be great, but there are a few others who I genuinely would like to spend a day in their shoes.

Firstly Ian Duncan Smith, so that I could get rid of ATOS and institute a much more sensible approach to the disability and work issue, a lot to get done in 24hrs, but I'd do it if I could !!! Secondly, I admire aung san suu kyi for all that she has endured during her time of incarceration in Tibet and would like to have the wealth of knowledge and understanding that she has.

Thirdly, for a touch of lightheartedness I would like to swap shoes with David Walliams, I love his humour, his integrity and general all round good chap.

I could go on, but that would be being greedy, just a day without all the problems surrounding fibro would be great !!

Me when I was 17, except I'd like to be wiser...failing that Mrs J. Depp :)

I wouldn't mind being someone terribly rich for a day - just to see if I like it, and also to see how much I could spend in one day.

This person would have to be healthy and have perfect feet to wear lovely shoes, 'cos I can't see the point of wealth if you can't wear Jimmy Choos!

I would first hide my iPad from my OH then swap with any female worker at F1 team lotus and spend a whole day with kimi reikonnen drools silently

You are very crafty, VG - you and Kimi could make a speedy getaway if you souped-up Myrtle to F1 standard - now there's a terrifying thought! :O

Pfftt I,d jump in the back of the two seater F1 car and we would be off.............

Are you sure myrtle won't go on strike knowing that you prefer a F1 to her......... Foggy promises she'll keep quiet.................at a price ;-) ;-)

Hehe I will set moffy on you she's apparantly disguised as Eddie Izard today for some strange reason .. With a huge collection of moth balls to throw at people...

I,be given up being surprised I just humour her now :)

eeeeverning! :-D thats the old me , so i think just any shoes that walks and runs and dances around with not a care in the world .

I sold most of my platforms now :-( being a midget always buying shoes that make me near enough 6ft haahha

my platform River Island 100.00 boots that were a prezzie . i try but now i feel like am trying on ice skating boots trying to balance ahahah.

Anyway lets all put those comfy slippers or slipper boots on as even slippers, no more slip ons, they have to be fitted slippers for falling out of them and getting up stairs?

Good blog VG as always ;-D here there and round and round you go in the little bowl blowing bubbles rolling eyes whistleing haahhahahah who is around ...well VG of course!!

Thanks and have a l lovely evening all of you special friends of fm. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx huggles and snuggles

I would make Bill and Ben walk in our shoes. (Cameron and Clegg), what we call them at work. They would get a double whammy with me as I am only a size 4, lol.

I would like to be dressed up smart in a period drama and get the handsome lord of the manor. Failing that would love to wear killer heels too (so I am taller than my 5 ft 2) and walk the red carpet with Mr Depp, Mr Williams or Jude Law for starters. Will think about main course and desert.

I'd be Cameron Diaz. Not because she's beautiful and drooled over by huge swathes on men, although that's a definite bonus, but because she's a bit of an adrenaline junkie and very active. Even before I got crippy I was too much of a wuss to try anything even vaguely resembling extreme sport. Would love to be in a body that loves chucking itself on waves or down snowy mountains just to experience the exhilaration. She also has a rather fine shoe collection :) x

Someone who is suffering worse than me so when I feel bad, I know to be thankful that it isn't any worse than it is.

@ v-g - Kimi is sweeeeeet even if he can only be bothered to scrawl KR as an autograph.

As for whos shoes... Im facing a stage 1 sickness absence this morning so work is my focus right now. There are some there who are bitchy/snarky/nasty & plain old theres nothing wrong cos I look fine/antiequality act because away from work they have X Y AND Z... I would like to understand things from their walk of life.

Who was it who said "I dont like that person, I must get to know them better."

Actually with that in mind I would love to spend a day with Michael Schumacher, doing what he does best (even though my son would possibly never speak to me again!)

Ohhh my Michael sobs F 1 just isn't the same ,,, so this year I am supporting kimi....I would have swapped with michaels wife but they are so happily married I chose kimi as he is the next best thing

Sorry for last post - totally inappropriate - knew it the minute I clicked the button.

I would change places with my Grandson - everything is an adventure and a joy to him. ( He's 7)

Leaving you all more positive vibes

For me, who else but david cameron. Just so he could see and feel what we all suffer every single day. It might just make him a little more compassionate and understanding.....but I doubt it, he,s a man with a heart of concrete.
