first my car and now this, was walking over to the shops for dinner stood on a stone and though ow! that hurts looked under my shoe and I have a hole in the bottom of it, I have put some of my buisness cards in my shoe until I get home, Laurel and hardy style.

I have only have them for about 4 months gutted.

You little scruff

Shall we send you a food parcel?

Anything will be appreciated, looks like I will be going to Office at the weekend does the Boro have one?

Office? Is that a soup kitchen?

No its the chain of charity shops they do a good deal if your a Hobo like myself, also running low now on buisness cards after I just shoved about 5 in my shoe

What does your business card say? "Compo the Hobo - available for any work as long as it's legal, footwear must be provided".

also cant work in the rain.

Fair point. I thought you were going to argue the 'anything legal' bit.

Dont ever buy these shoes, they will only last 5 minutes you have been warned:

Ah, I see your mistake now. They're 'loafers', designed by and for loafers who never do any work or much moving about. They last longer if you don't do any walking.

Very similar to a pair I'm wearing at the moment a tenner from Tesco.

Although I can't tell if they will out perform your shoes 4 months, I've only had these for about a month.

You can't be doing much business then. It takes me about three weeks to run out of business cards.

Your problem is you bought shoes from Office, get yourself to Triads or Psyche when you're in Boro and buy yourself a pair of Grenson's, Loakes or something similar. They'll last you a lifetime if you look after them properly and as long as you keep the upper tidy then you can get them re-soled.

If ya got yaself a decent car, you wouldnt need to walk...
