In my local Wickes yesterday buying plasterboard (long story, don't ask) They've got Scruffs boots in for £20

I have a pair of dewalts that I love, but pricey. I get cheap ones from sports direct. About £25 I think I paid. Have all the pockets. They even do them as shorts...I got them too

Is that the Dunlop ones? Seen those a few times

 

[Kate]

Yea the Dunlop ones. They're not bad especially for the price.

 

[pennychew]

Yeah they look ok, I've got four pair of Scruffs that I alternate now so I shouldn't need any for a couple of years now hopefully

 

[Kate]

Hopefully. Consider Dunlop if you ever change your mind

I could fancy some shorts for the summer but I'm not sure if I can inflict those kinds of images on the general public!

 

[Kate]

Who cares what they think! Be comfy!

Site foreman last year on a job banned me from wearing shorts on site when he saw my legs! Shorts are not an option lol.

I wear shorts happily! Stick my tongue out to anyone who has a problem

To be fair though you probably look slightly better in them than me or Paul do!

 

[Kate]

Need to try it and see!

 

[pennychew]

The last time you would have seen legs like these they will have been hanging out of a nest!

Kate you win, not a chance I'm going to post up a picture of my legs.

edit, Mrs.M looked over my shoulder at this post and laughed! She says it should read, "hairy legs with scars and the same shade of white as a milk bottle". My reply is "yeah, but I have a nice bum" lol.

I can feel another comp coming on here, mentors and trainees welcome, best set of legs in shorts wins a prize!

 

[telectrix]

the prize being paul's thermal underpants that he's worn all winter.

 

[pennychew]

Nearly fell of my ladder there mate!

 

[telectrix]
