Richard Branson has been told to "look out" as two savvy schoolboys have won over the hearts of Liverpool.
Cole Fletcher and Ethan Dutton, 12, who have been best friends since primary school, decided they wanted to make some extra pocket money while also helping people going to the Grand National at Aintree last week. The boys, who were born on the same day, went to Primark and bought 120 pairs of flipflops to sell outside the racecourse.
The boys stood on the street corner with a hand painted sign saying "for sale flipflops". Rachel Eaton, Cole's mum, spoke to The ECHO of how proud she was of her son and his best friend.
