    Thanks Pap, I knew I had seen or read about it somewhere! Will pop B's in the post today :)

    Will be sending you lots and lots of good luck vibes hun for that interview. If you want cheap wellies go to tesco/asda or even cheap shoe shops sell them for around £5-8

    Thanks Sally, make sure you have a 'back up' if you have told Bea :D Thanks I want some swish ones with a design on though :rotfl: Aldi had some this week but when I saw them in the flesh they were horrid! Not planning on paying much for them anyways as they will only be spoilt. Saying that in college I could never wear normal size wellies, I always had to have half calf or to save some money I just cut down normal wellies. I am sure they will fit now though :T Do you buy the same foot size as you are now? :confused:


    Oh and talking about shoes... potentinally 75% off at clarks if anyones interested. Some really nice bags for £15 too ;)

    Yep just buy normal size, well unless you intend on wearing exceptionally thick socks which you might need if its really cold but then I would only go up half a size or 1 max. Ive seen loads of lovely patterned wellies around so you should get some nice ones :)

    Good luck Pap!

    I got my HD delivery yesterday, talk about overpackaged! It was gorgeous though, and bigger than I expected, I got the flower one.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
  • Thanks Skinty and Sally. I would go to asda Skinty, but I get drawn in by the clothes :rolleyes: It was a challange the other week to go in just for a shirt :rotfl: i will see what teh internet throws uo and go from there. I think I can stretch to a max of £15 inc postage so we shall see :D Thanks for the size info Sally, I will just go for normal sizes then :T
