FAITH SHOE SALE - I'LL HAVE SOME OF THAT

By Jan True on Jul 9, 09 08:43 AM

I took my son, Matt, to Liverpool University Open Day the other day.

He's 16 and at a career's convention at his school last year he had been invited to the Open Day after showing an interest in studying for a degree in Electrical Engineering.

It was a fascinating experience for both of us. We attended three seminars in the following subjects. Mathematical Sciences, Physics and Astrophysics and Electrical Engineering with Electronics.

Phew! It was heavy stuff but it really has given him something to think about.

It was a beautiful sunny day and instead of driving into Liverpool and having to park miles from the University, I decided to catch the train to Central Station and jump a cab.

As we were walking to the taxi, I spotted out the corner of my eye that Faith shoe shop was having a sale. As if I'd miss something like that. Anyway, I made a mental note to pop in on the way back and off we went.

As I sat down in the cab I asked the driver to take me to Liverpool University. He looked a little perplexed and asked me "Which part?"

Well that had me stumped. "The main entrance," I replied. That didn't appear to help so after fumbling with information leaflet, I suggested an area and off we went. Turned out we were at the right place.

After out tour, Matt and I both agreed that we had had enough information input for one day, so we set off on the downhill trek back to the station.

As we were approaching Central Station I suggested to Matt that he go get a McDonalds so I could take a look in the Faith sale. My son a shoe shops do not mix.

And boy am I glad I did. I got myself a rather snazzy pair of white sandals, reduced from £55 to £20. They have a rather chunky dark wooden platform and wide heel with a perplex strip running between the base and the white toe strap. Very nice for summer.
I haven't worn them yet but I will be very soon.
