I must confess I was surprised to learn that women were not allowed to run Olympic marathons as recently as the 1980s. It proves that the pre-internet age wasn't an entirely innocent period; there's lots of inter-brand sniping, with knowing references to 'air' and 'just do it'.

We do not have any information about the company SOLED OUT (WHITLEY BAY) LIMITED being in liquidation.
