Or as Rictus said, Army Goretex boot liners are cheaper.

Or new boots
Not heard of these gortex boot liners I'll have to Google that.

I remember those days too. Was too skint to be able to afford the dry socks/liners available then, much to the amusement of my work colleagues. After a few years I gave in and bought a car, even though the socks would have been cheaper

Thanks. I saw some sealskin socks in Millets recently but I don't recall the price, probably expensive.

Yeah, really, but I thought I'd wait until everyone stopped bickering over the Muslims to mention it.

Bloody hell lph, didn't expect to read that and I'm really sorry to hear it. Hope you have people around you for support. Break ups are a hard thing to go through at the best of times, and more so at this very low time of the year.

You have an org full of shoulders here to lean on if you need them.
