Fish n' Chips and Hi Tec
My mate has got himself a job in South End working for hi tec.This comes as a bit of a surprise because we all thought he was very happy in his current job. But he's really excited to go and work for them, so good for him.
He appeared for the usual pub catch up on Sunday wearing a pair of retro hi tec silver shadow trainers and gave us all a Hi Tec catalogue to flip through (typical salesman that he is) and offered us a discount on pretty much whatever we want before he moves down that way. But I have to order through Fitness Footwear, because Hi Tec doesn't sell direct. Seems mad to me, but hey, it's not my industry.
I have to say that while Hi Tec seem to be a bit of an overlooked British brand, they're actually very good in sports and outdoors footwear While they don't quite have the same branded impact as Nike or Adidas, they make some bloody good shoes at a really good price.
Although I have to wonder if they've priced their products too low for what they are? Perhaps that just goes to show how overpriced everything else is.
I already own a pair of hi tec auckland for general outdoor stuff and they haven't let me down. So considering they cost me about thirty quid, I was well impressed. Now that I have a friend in the right place, I'm also thinking of purchasing some hi tec squash shoes for my weekly game of Squash followed by pub. A change of racquet didn't give me the competitive edge, so my regular game is still a hard fought stalemate. Maybe some appropriate footwear would make a difference?
All I need now is a friend who works for Dell because my PC is in its death throes. I've tried absolutely everything and still it constantly cuts out for no apparent reason. It's been better since running Google Chrome, but after a week its decided to continue crashing anyway.
