The best laid plans ...

No luck! This morning's plan to pick up the shoes at the factory have turned to dust. Yesterday the disturbances in Quillacollo were quite bad and the MANACO workers were at the centre of it. The manager has told us that it is totally impossible to open the factory for any reason because yesterday the demonstrators broke windows and caused a great deal of damage so the factory is completely closed. This is a major setback because it means that the children will not get their shoes tomorrow. All I can do is leave the money and when things return more or less to normal Primo will have to come down and pay the bill and collect the goods. Another wasted day!
