New Boots.
« on: October 10, 2011 »

Got myself a new pair of boots in TK maxx for £20! They were so cheap because of them being last years season or something, but if they serve you well who cares?

They are the Hi-Tec 50 peaks, now Grace and I are matching on the boot sector.

That brings the total I have ever spent on boots to £30. Last pair was Hi Tec as well and bought in Mountain Warehouse for £10. Bargain.

Tkmaxx also have big furry winter boots, proper outdoors ones. Cant remember the brand, but I tried them on and they were both comfy and warm.

Called in to T k Max today for the sole purpose (forgive the pun) of getting a pair of Hi Tetec 50 peaks boots for 20 quid, I already have a pair which I got well over a year ago and I have no complaints, what a great wee boot, mine are near worn flat as I now wear them every day (no joke). Much to my disappointment there were no bargains to be had in the boot department  :(. But not wishing to leave without a bargain I had a look around and as luck would have it I found some Marino wool socks for not 9 quid a pair as I was willing to pay on the internet (cheapest I could find) but only 2.99 a pair, 3 pairs later I left the shop.....  wa gonna go on but i have to cut and pate the letter  s  w x and the pound igh becaue i plit beer on the keyboard, anyay marino ool ock 2.99 t k ma

I spilt a glass of water over my keyboard on my second day in a new job.  I think I put up with keystroke lottery for about 4 days before I plucked up the courage to tell the IT guy.
