After buying yet another pair of wellies that haven't been grown out of I decided that wellies should be the subject of my blog. In the last 2 weeks we have split 2 pairs of wellies so they are clearly used frequently and to a high level!
For this blog I have used pseudonyms as it is really the wellies that have the adventures and not the owners. Spiderman is the greatest lover of the wellie boot; being 3 means only one thing, mud and puddles. Tigerlily (6) appreciates the value of the Wellington boot as long as her school friends don't see. Croc (34) has realised that the only suitable footwear to be worn when keeping up with Spiderman is the wellie. Slipper (36) has feet that are too big for most wellies so we are still working on him! Puss in boots looks like she wears white fur wellies and would only consider wellies in the snow when her paws are too cold!
The challenge now is to find a pair of wellies that do not split. Croc is trying the croc wellie, Spiderman a "jelly shoe" type of wellie and Tigerlily a second hand pair off ebay. Which wellie will last the longest? What to do with the split wellies, landfill or an interesting plant pot?!
