Shoe Aid

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Alright Brian,

Hiya Carlos, how you doing mate.

 

[peteblue]

Was just talking to one of my mates who is doing some aid work in Africa, apparently he's shown a few of them this thread and they're horrified that Ash is having to go through this. They're going to do the usual 40 mile barefoot walk to get water, but they're going to make it a sponsored walk to raise much needed funds for this.

By god we'll get him those shoes.

Does he need both shoes or just the one, I've got a really good left shoe going spare, black but not in a racist way....

Give it to @Ashtonian he will only be needing one soon anyway

 

[Rook]

He's beyond the help of big $$$$$$ corporate medicine. This is the way to go.

Enjoy. Hope it does some good - get giving lads/ladies.



Shoe shopping time, and there's a need to be afraid,
Without the right shoe, HIS foot pain will escalate.
And in a world of Nike, and Vans and Reebok too,
Won't you help Ashtonian choose the right kind of shoe.

And say a prayer - pray for him when he runs,
to B&Q, for toilet parts as his seat has gone.
There's a world of brands to choose from,
and he needs the right pair.
But the only ones he sees now,
are Hi-Tec and Fila.
And it's only bells that wear those,
The designs are just too dull.
So tonight let's get him Nike,
or he's a wool.

And there won't be Gola in Ash's house this Christmas time.
The greatest gift he'll get this year is shoes.
Three stripes or a tick,
Anything else would just be sick,
Let's get Ashtonian some decent shoes.

Here's to him, without plantar fasciitis,
No longer will people take the piss,
Let's just get Ash a decent pair right now.

Get him shoes, let him walk this Christmas time.
Get him shoes, let him walk this Christmas time.
Get him shoes, let him walk this Christmas time.
Get him shoes, let him walk this Christmas time right now.

Sorry lads, this is ace, NEA.

It has come to our attention that @Ashtonian has suffered a near fatal incident involving his foot, with the logical conclusion being that his footwear has played a large part in this, or lack of footwear as it would seem. See - https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/foot-pain.92912/

I've been in touch with Bob Geldof and he's told me to get lost, so we're reaching out to the GOT community to see if we can offer Ash some footwear advice and maybe even provide an adequate pair of shoes.

For those that don't know Ash has been through some struggles recently and has to walk 5 miles just to reach a work place that doesn't appreciate him, his children haven't eaten this week as he had to spend money on a bus ticket and he's also facing a hefty prison sentence for fraud. Please let's try and bring a little bit of light into his life this Christmas. He has kindly shared some images that I don't think he'd mind me showing.

This was Christopher as he set off for work yesterday

His shoes were in a very poor state upon his arrival

He was visibly upset as one of his colleagues captured this image

He set off home but it became too much and he threw himself in the river in the hope of ending it all

Thankfully he survived and was escorted home, but this morning his foot was in a poor state, he thought he'd woken up next to a baby elephant (insert jokes about his mrs if you so please)

Please just give what you can.

Thanks

I am in awe of your research / Ashtonian stalking.
