Wellies

Wellington boots are useful things

You wear them on your feet

They’re good at keeping water out

But don’t retain the heat

So if you go out walking

Through puddles, streams and lochs

Take my advice, make sure you wear

Two pairs of woolly socks

Too bad I can't relate to this topic, but I'll let the boys know! Isn't a loch a wee bit big to be stamping across?? Just gave me a great visual of a huge giant with Wellington boots on splashing across one - and promptly freezing his feet off! :~) ~Jess K. ---------------------------------------------------- -"As you slide down the banister of life, may the splinters never point in the wrong direction!" -"God is good, but never dance in a small boat."
