Nuns, clogs & serendipity

I undertook to search the web for a piece of information for my new friend

By chance, one of the first, not-being-looked-for items to come up was an item from the local paper just a couple of months ago: the nuns who taught her are finally leaving Stockport

Two other interesting snippets, from a man who bought the lasts of Stockport’s last clog maker, & the memories of a wartime evacuee from Guernsey who was also struck by clog-wearing children
