Nice and warm wellies

I'm not just a pretty face mate. I'll keep you right...

Been doing this since I was a nipper.

shag pile mate

Might need to go a few sizes too big but I like the idea...

my feet are a 10. New wellies are 12. I couldn't get my feet in the 10's with the liner in. The elevens were very tight. Been using them in garden as we are covered in snow. They are lovely and warm.

where can I get size 14 wellies?

Cursed with clown feet... I think size 14 wellies use as much rubber as a truck tyre

I'll stick with my hiking boots and 2 pairs of thermal socks... The ideas of neoprene welly socks is a belter. Wish I was a size 9

they would have to milk all the rubber trees on the planet .....edbeef.....that name cracks me up whats the story behind the name.....

haha! Just a nickname from college years, I was a lot broader than them (they were very skinny) and one of them called me edbeef and it stuck!

I get 13's from my local horse tack shop - dunno if they go to 14's tho....

Might be able to get into them... I'll keep the specialist shops in mind if I decide to invest.

Aye exactly Lefty. Me and you will stick to the bargain basement gear eh?

If I ever win the lottery, I'll buy you pair of Hunter waders alright...

Andy its a double rollover tonight, good luck, lefty get ready

Bought a pair of groundwork boots a couple of weeks ago from winfields... in the sale, cost me £19 and they are very good...thermal lined and comfy to wear, they have kept my feet warm and dry in the snow....nothing worse than cold feet.
It is a nice sunny day in my little bit of yorkshire today but the windchill has got temps down well below what is flashing up on the cars dash -4.5 ... Take care and get those layers on if you are out and about
