Did Neil Armstrong, the first man on the moon secretly wear brasher boots?

This is the sensational claim we can reveal today.

Ex-Brasher Marketing Manager from the 1970's Ms April Loof, made the assertion today on this her 90th birthday.

Ms Loof said that, yes her memory wasn't quite what it was, but she could clearly recall that a special prototype brasher 'Moonmaster' boot was worn on that historic day in July 1969.

However, sources close to NASA rubbish the idea, saying that as Armstrong's walk was in 1969 and the Brasher Boot Company didn't originate until the 1970's, there was something of a mis-match in the dates.

(Speaking of dates perhaps we might also draw your attention to the date of this blog post. April 01 2008.)
