Here's today's find: http://www.wellyracks.com/

£38 for a few sticks of wood and a slap of paint.

Genius. (Hope you're reading Dave..... you could do this)

Don't they worry about their designer boots being stolen? Or spiders crawling inside?

My wife had one of her boots stolen - they were a bit furry. We thought probably foxes.

Maybe you're supposed to use that to go in/out ... then bring them in at the end of the day.

I leave my boots out under the porch or in the back hall. Couldn't care less about running into a spider, but don't want mud in the house or an extra job everyday! I think your find is a good idea.


I'm going off MSE again. I get fed up of people spouting the ''Daily Mail'' readers line, expecially when they go on to write a DM style....

If it weren't for the nice people I'd be long gone.

Meanwhile odd day here. Dogs are edgey...which always makes me edgy.

They know it's Valentine's day on Sunday - and they've not yet seen you baking any special cakes, or picking up the heart shaped frying pan from Poundland..... and they don't want Sunday to turn into another drunken brawl (like usual) because you simply forgot, or didn't care :P

Oh god...it's on monday isn't it? I've not planned anything other than breakfast for DH...
If my dogs want to celebrate saints' days they should behave like heathens.

BFGW being discussed on BBC1 . I'm not the only person who doesn't like the voice over....the Gypsy rep says the travelling community don't either. And the way its been edited coming out has changed over the transmission time. 7.5 illion watched last night. I think WS could have written something more captivating.

Yes I could, if I didn't have a whole heap of other stuff to do and insufficient nerve to charge those prices.

Personally, I don't 'get' them, but the two of us have a 25' conservatory to store boots in, so floor space isn't much of an issue.

It's just up-market Betterware.

Love that, you've nailed it! Upmarket Betterware!
That's precisely what it is ..... but it sells. And once you get over the disgust of taking sweets from children you can milk the mothers dry with these ranges

And no dogs to jostle them or drool in them, or send them flying when someone comes to the door!.....I see the benefit!! (I just wouldn't pay that!)
