And you thought there was only ONE way (probably the Two Loop Shoelace Knot)!!!!

Today, for the second time, I adopted a new way to tie my laces. A couple of years ago I'd moved up to "Better Bow" which is very secure but can still be undone by pulling the ends, and today I used "Ian's Fast" which is very fast to tie but a conventional knot. I had to redo it after a few minutes walking - evidently it needs to be pulled pretty tight. I might yet move back to Better Bow. Exciting times! Surely this is better than a photo of food?
