And relax.

  2. Dear Tom

    Your Dad always got through a lot of expensive Clarkes school shoes. It was always the 'kicking foot' that wore out first. That was after about 195 yards too...

    I will be going past the Clarkes Factory soon, so I shall have a word with their Fat Controller, to see if he can do anything about your shoddy footwear.

    Lots of love,

    Uncle Alan
