Always inspect the shoes you bought

MISMATCHED SHOES. It is always wise to inspect the shoes you bought before taking the pair home. This advice comes from a schoolteacher who discovered upon reaching home (Bantayan Island) that the pair of rubber shoes she bought for her son at a shoes store in Colon Street did not match. “Ang tuo lahi kay sa wa’a,” she said. “Wa man gud nako tseka una gi-wrap sa tindera,” the teacher said shaking her head.

ANOTHER MISMATCH. About two years ago, a mediaman bought a pair of leather sandals from a store in a shopping mall. Upon reaching home in Pardo, he found out that both sandals were for the left foot. “Pulos walhon,” he said.
