SHOE LASTS & MARLY

For thirty years Marly’s grandad was a cobbler in the small village of Ayios Tychonas on the southern coast of Cyprus. As a child Marly had proudly worn sandles that he’d made for her to Sunday service. After his death she returned to the village with her husband, her grandparents’ land and out houses were being cleared before being sold, the site was to house a new larger church. Whilst clearing out one of the buildings Marly found and rescued an old sack filled with her grandfather’s shoe lasts.
