Trainers

Last five months after the last purchase, time for some new Moab Ventilators. Left shoe still OK, but the inside of the right heel breaking down and there is a growing hole or tear in the black rubber of the right toe cap. Still quite wearable but a little tatty looking.

Ordered online Sunday past and turned up in the post midday today, Friday. They must have changed their arrangements, as I feel sure the last pair I ordered did not come in the post.

But I have learned that the artily textured box came from Vietnam. Hopefully not a million miles from where the trainers were made. A bit poor if we are even importing cardboard boxes from the other side of the world, even flat-packed ones.

PS: quite unable to get the two edges - top and left - at right angles, despite much fiddling with the camera angle. Must be a feature of the fish-eye lens of my telephone.
