The Boy Who Wore Sausage Shoes

Tod was a perfectly normal boy in every way. Perfectly normal that is, with one exception: where there should have been shoes on his feet, there were large sausages that had been hollowed out and allowed to dry. I don't know if you know it or not, but a dried out sausage is nearly indestructible; you can bang nails into concrete with them and they won't break or even scratch.

Indestructible or not, Tod hated his shoes. The dogs chased him and other kids pointed and laughed in that way that only kids can point and laugh. They also tended to take on a peculiar odor during humidity of the summer. None of this made Tod happy. He just wanted to have normal shoes like everyone else.

One day, Tod came to visit me--I'm his milk man. Don't let the title milk man fool you, however, we deliver a lot more than just milk, including eggs and cheese. Tod mentioned his shoe problem to me.

I thought about his problem long and hard, for I was sympathetic with the boy. I'd never worn sausage shoes before, but I could relate to his problem. I decided that I would help him out.

I'm pretty handy, so I figured I'd make him some shoes myself. You have to remember, this was back in the day and there wasn't much money to go around. I gathered some supplies and set to work. After a few hours time, I had the perfect pair of shoes made.

The next day, while doing my route, I eventually arrived at his house. I crept up to his bedroom window and gently knocked. After a few moments, he answered, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.

I handed him a package, wrapped in brown packing paper and tied with string. He asked me what was in it. I told him to open it up, but while he was fumbling with the knot, I said he wouldn't have to wear those sausage shoes anymore. His eyes brightened and he worked harder on the knot. Eventually, he got the package open and saw my gift to him.

Two shoes, just his size, made entirely of cheese.

To be continued....

There are...

...often times when my hands are way too busy & engaged in other very important activities.

Like cutting collage, typing or thumbing through a Magazine.

So these come in very "handy" when turning over the T.V , preparing Vegetables or even playing "Poker"

"Show us your hand"

They say....

I show them my "Poker foot"

Game over....

David I'm wearing those very Grensons right now! Great choice!

[david_carnell]

Lucky man.

Got a spare pair in size 11 by any chance?

[benjaminty]

Camberwell Shoes! Put an order in and he'll do you a damn fine deal compared to anywhere in West End or the Grenson shop.

[david_carnell]

Mmm...Trickers?

Brogue boots are a very much "the thing". I'm liking the stripy sock too.

But if we're getting serious there really is only one shoe shop:

Proper hand-made Lobbs.

[woofmarkthedog]

Oh great..

I've been "the thing" for 20 odd years then

The "Lobs" are nice IF you have a walk on part in a "Dickens" play

Just a shade too nice for me

There is a slight "pik*y edge" to the trickers ( which suits the glint in my eye )

[TheArtfulDogger]

I like Boots myself

Good place to get a torch for night time car park visits, and if you are lucky the girl behind the counter will split a packet of three for you

[woofmarkthedog]

I knew this thread was like way ahead of it's time

I'm really coming round to the idea that shoes can stop wars & make elections

This shoe blog is obviously an inspired idea

I bought some 'shoes' once. Never wore them.

Never again. Lesson learned.
