Well - yes it was raining a bit in Edinburgh.
Found this shop on the Royal Mile selling these pink tartan wellies!!!
THE WELLY BOOT SONG
-Billie Connelly
(Tune: "Work Of The Weavers")
CHORUS: If it wasnae for your wellies where would ye be
You'd be in the hospital or infirmary
You would have a dose of the flu or even pluresy
If y' didna' have your feet in your wellies"
Indeed!!
:-)

Splendid - made me smile - IMO would be even better cropped a little to make the boots look continuous.

Great boots! I'm surprised you haven't heard of "liquid sunshine" - I first heard the term from some GIs stationed in one of the rainier parts of England.
