[Margaret Pilkington]

For the bad weather I chose a pair of wellies.......OK, they are not a fashion statement(althought they are a pretty pink shade with roses on them)....the grips on the soles are excellent. Exactly what is required for snow and ice. Much better than a pot arm(or leg......worse still, at my age a fractured hip).

I have been checking out leather boots in all kinds of shops, but they are for fashion rather than for practicality.......NBG(no blooming good)
Choose wellies and some thick socks......be safe on your feet, and toasty warm.
