Court win over 200 high heel shoe collection claim - Telegraph
A businesswoman has won the right to claim compensation after a slip at Stansted Airport left her unable to wear any of the shoes in her collection of 200 high heels.

Tina Knight, 66, was flying back from northern Cyprus where she planned to set up a business selling studio apartments when the accident happened in July 2005.

She claimed that as well as suffering injuries to her knee, hip and thumb, she fractured her right little toe, forcing her to permanently swap high heels for flat shoes.

At Cambridge County Court earlier this year, she expressed her distress that her injuries meant she was unable to wear "normal court shoes".

"I love to wear high-heeled shoes," she added in a witness statement. "I have about 200 pairs of shoes, but I can no longer wear them."

Paging Izzy.

In the end, might makes right. Nothing has changed since the caveman.
