AS TIME GOES BY……………………………………….

In my younger days as a fanatical Banana scoffer I never truly understood the journey I was embarking on, where would I and my bananas end up?

Would I be sitting in a ditch surrounded by rotting skins, begging passing postmen to deliver me a stray letter filled with Banana Vouchers? Would I be hanging around the back doors of cobblers up and down the country, just waiting for some kindly shoesmith to open up a world of joy to me with the offer of an apprenticeship?

Neither of the above folks!

I sit here on this glorious day, on a mountain of the finest boxed boots looking out across my harbour, as ship after ship rolls towards me loaded with the finest soft gold that the gods could offer!

A brief history of the Boot.

The Boot or ‘Large Ridiculous Shoe’ was the product of a conundrum faced by Stephen Hawking whilst punting in December 1970.

He thought a decent foot carrier was integral to his wardrobe and due to his elongated ankle issue he imagined the Boot, there and then.

What a genius.

More is more.

Vatican insiders tell me that our Pope  Benny Eggs, has upped his daily intake of our delicious yellow friends from 3 to 6. A huge leap by anybody’s standards, but it seems it is having nothing but positive effects on the 81 year old kraut.
