ChoumertMatt, I have been clearing out my loft.


I have a pair of walking boots I don't want. They have plenty of wear left in them, but they are thirty years old.


I don't want to offend anybody by offering something old that they would not want, on the other hand somebody might prefer these to something more flimsy in the Winter (they are old style walking boots, leather with thick soles).


Would you be able to make use of them? They are size six and a half (I bought them in Australia, but I think the sizing must be the same as here).


If so, I'll give them a clean and some new laces and drop them round to the Copleston Centre.

Dear Sue,


Thank you for this. At present we are unable to take used shoes but only new, or nearly new ones. Thank you for your generous offer, but most shoes and walking boots take a bit of time to mould a foot, and older items may cause blisters even if they have been used for half a day.


Thank you for your kind and generous offer.


With all good wishes,


Matthew

    • "You have no idea why"   To be fair Sue, it's blindingly obvious to anyone who has a conversation with anyone who isn't a Corbyn supporter. And even some who liked Corbyn (like me initially) found him somewhat flaky even at his most popular But let's say you are right and I have NO idea why anybody might not vote for him. They still didn't vote for him. He lost two elections. The second one badly (and strongly predicted but the stubborn old goat wouldn't budge so we we were stuck with Johnson and another 3 million PMs in the 5 years that followed) So even with ZERO evidence, we have our eyes and ears and brains But we do have evidence   https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/27022-their-own-words-why-voters-abandoned-labour
    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
    • Also, just to add, the threat to kill someone's dog and try to kick it, is an additional extremely unpleasant layer. I have noticed a lot of the burst water balloons lying around in the park too- that is not great for the environment either.
