- The last person that washes his feet in the water had to throw it out.
The old people say that if there is and person of the house on a visit is is not right to throw out the feet water until that person comes in.
Some of our shoemakers makes boots and shoes are also repaired here. The shoemakers did not learn the trade from their fathers but from other shoemakers.
My parents never heard of any people who wore boots.
Schoolchildren now-a-days don't wear any shoes during summer.
Clogs are worn by some people yet.
