2 left feet for 4 years

My dads had the same kind of company as i have now.This is how i started selling safety boots.

One day a customer came in to him and said " i need a new set of safety wellingtons,these have worn out.They lasted me 4 years you know."

My dad said " Do you want thee same ones as you had last time?"

The man said " I would like the same brand but this time could i have a pair and not just 2 left feet"

Can you belive a man spent 4 years wearing 2 left feet???

What is a ce marking

General principles of the CE marking
The CE marking shall be affixed only by the manufacturer or his authorised representative.
The CE marking shall be affixed only to products to which its affixing is provided for by specific Community harmonisation legislation, and shall not be affixed to any other product.
By affixing or having affixed the CE marking, the manufacturer indicates that he takes responsibility for the conformity of the product with all applicable requirements set out in the relevant Community harmonisation legislation providing for its affixing.
The CE marking shall be the only marking which attests the conformity of the product with the applicable requirements of the relevant Community harmonisation legislation providing for its affixing.
The affixing to a product of markings, signs or inscriptions which are likely to mislead third parties regarding the meaning or form of the CE marking shall be prohibited. Any other marking may be affixed to the product provided that the visibility, legibility and meaning of the CE marking is not thereby impaired.
Member States shall ensure the correct implementation of the regime governing the CE marking and take appropriate action in the event of improper use of the marking. Member States shall also provide for penalties for infringements, which may include criminal sanctions for serious infringements. Those penalties shall be proportionate to the seriousness of the offence and constitute an effective deterrent against improper use.

Why your feet might hurt at the end of the day

Did you know that sweat is one of the reasons for your feet hurting.

If at the end of the day you find your feet hurting try giving them a good was.
Get yourself some charcoal inserts for your boots.
Put some talcum powder in your boots to help absorb the sweat.
Ensure your feet are dry before putting your boots on
Wear cotton rich socks, again this helps to absorb sweat.

Caterpiller were the first people to bring in a fashion item into the safetyboot market.Up untill that point the British safety boot was basicly a steel toe capped army boot.Things have changed alot since the 1980s but Catapiller still have a great name in the trade.
I wonder though how much of the market they comand now.Think i will try to look that up.
