Local tradition is that after exams finish the kids throw their shoes in the tree. After the original shoe tree had to be felled, the council now harvest the shoes annually.

Thanks Mike, but I will pass on the boot. ;)

The photo came out better than expected and I was fortunate with the light. Cheers.

I would have expected Mike to have given you the boot Keith!
