    What do you use your wellies for? I use them for basic jobs around the house ie.bringing in the bin or cutting the lawn.

    I wear mine whenever its raining. Like yesterday I wore them walking the dog, shopping and clearing the backyard. They are yellow and navy. And match my yellow raincoat.
    I used to worry about what other friends would say to me wearing wellies but I couldn't care less. In fact, since I bought mine last Nov, two more friends have bought some.
    Up the welly brigade.;)

    I have pink spotty ones and I use them for archery.. Irish summers usually make standing shooting in a field all day a very muddy affair and they save my white tracksuit botoms(which we have to wear)

    I saw that somebody had a pair in a room as a decoration in some article on interiors I saw in the paper! Madness imo! They should be worn! (But only in the country, outdoors of a rainy day)

    Have a pink pair myself with black hearts on them. Got them when living in Chicago to get through all the snow. Such a good investment. But they haven't been used since.... *sniff*

    For me, wellies are for walking through ****e...literally. Farm life in ireland isn't all about flowers and crap like that. It is about wellies and oilskins and **** and comin in sfter a long day to you 7 children and wife and shaggin the livin daylights out of her...its an irish heritage...

    I don't have a pair, but my mum lives in the country and my sister bought her a really funky pair so she could wear them when she garding or walking around fields ;)
