Overheard at a gathering in Batu Caves…
Apparently the Egyptians were the first to wear shoes in 1200BC. This was strongly contested by the Mesopotamians who claimed that they have been wearing shoes since 1437 BC. Their claim is also backed by recent archeological finds – a fossilized bunion and an ancient price list for different types of pedicures. Despite the ongoing debate, both sides agree that the day when the shoe was worn was definitely 25th August, regardless of the year. This officially makes the shoe, a Virgo.
