Apache boots update!!!!!!!
Wearing dealer boots with shorts wasn't working out, as I was having to take them off every five mins to empty the crap out. [boots not shorts]
So I got a pair of lace-up Apache as Screwfix stock them, whereas Magnum (my preference) get posted from the manufacturer.
Good quality (like the dealers) for £40, but (like the dealers) the soles have no give whatsoever and at the end of the day my feet are sore as hell, even with various insoles.
So I've now spent more than a pair of Magnum, which I will now have to buy and as I won't be in when they're delivered, schlep to the PO to collect.
Sorely [lol] tempted to wear my hiking boots in the meantime. It's not as if anyone's bothered: one of the brickies didn't have shorts, so was working in his cacks FFS.
I fucking hate house-bashing.
