Old shoes, a.k.a. important facts vol.3

But this is a real important fact, mmmmkay?
Have you ever thought that throwing your old shoes to a rubbish bin is not enough? Have you ever wondered if there is another option for your unwanted shoes? Sure, for shoes that still looks great you have (at least in England) many charity shops which would be happy to re-sell your shoes. But what to do with the ones which are broken/worn out? Could those be of any help to anyone?

YES! There is an amazing project called Shoe Biz going on between UNICEF and Clarks.



I have read about it in our church newsletter. It's a shame it's not advertised more, no posters in the store, no leaflets....but it works. I have tried ;)

Donate your unwanted/worn out/broken shoes for a good purpose :

"Help Shoe Biz and UNICEF to reach even more children by donating your old or unwanted shoes at your nearest Clarks store. Your shoes will help to change children's lives."

Lately

Posledné dva mesiace som zasa veľa dochádzala do Londýna. Tu je aspoň pár fotiek.

Lately, I  have been very busy. I have been commuting to London a lot....again. Here is how it looks like.


Káviškovali sme na 40tke.

The best coffee place in London is on floor 40.


Vidíte to lietadlo?

Do you see the plane?


Minule sa mi podarilo uchmatnúť stolík pri okne.

The other day I had a desk by the window.


Milujem pracovať v tejto kancelárii, i keď to znamená vstávať o pol šiestej ráno a stráviť takmer 4 hodiny denne vo vlaku. Čo vy, máte radi vaše pracovisko?

I love working in this office. Even though it means I have to get up at 5.30 and spend almost 4 hours per day in train. What about you, do you like the place where you work?
