I really ...I've wondered about those, Reevers.<br /><br />I really did need some steel toecaps for a job once, and although they rubbed a little, they did the job, mostly (although I sent them back when they split, and the manufacturers replaced them immediately)!<br /><br />So, I have to say that I wish you, and all the Reevers Clan a Happy and Prosperous New Year, which by my reckoning, you have already started!Scrobs.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12942449871600526680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1951383775805178587.post-1643109455673153702015-12-31T19:29:33.926+00:002015-12-31T19:29:33.926+00:00They're buggers, Mr H.

May I suggest ...Clearly more style than substance!<br /><br />May I suggest you invest in a decent pair of (eg) Timberland desert boots, along with a spray tube of waterproofing liquid. I have had such a pair since the mid-1960s. They resemble the old fashioned style of football boots (not the bedroom slippers that players seem to use these days), have been used all over the world in jungles, floods, snow and deserts, with me and they are still as good as new. Rough, tough, much lighter and most certainly waterproof.<br /><br />PS: I declare I have no interests in any of the companies concerned!<br /><br />PPS: Happy New Year to you and yours, and of course the other three readers/contributors to/of this blog. Looking forward to more merriment in the new year.M. & Mme rvinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1951383775805178587.post-28981704734546409482015-12-29T16:43:00.441+00:002015-12-29T16:43:00.441+00:00I wondered why I've never seen anyone move qui...I wondered why I've never seen anyone move quickly in them.A K Haarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05897490979828603179noreply@blogger.com
