Boots, Aaargh!

As mentioned before (here and here, to be precise), once upon a time I ordered some boots. Two pairs. One pair arrived, eventually. The other pair...

Well, I'm starting to give up all hope. It's been eight months now. Are they hand-rearing a cow (well, ok, quorn-thing), just for me (and if so, do I get a complementary steak along with my footwear, when it finally arrives)?

To be fair, they've just given me a 10% discount as an apology. Which is nice. But you can't go to Whitby wearing a 10% discount, can you?

I think it depends on where you wear it, and whether or not it clashes with your hair.

I'm also told it's the perfect accessory for jumping into the North Sea in.

Not that I'm likely to do that, of course. It's cold in there. Or so I'm told.

This from the man who decided to go wandering about on the wet rocks at Whitby in a pair of winkle-pickers with no grip.

They did the same thing to me for the Nov Whitby in 2001. The boots eventually arrived in time for my birthday - in March :(

Oddly enough, these boots were ordered for that WGW, too... *sigh*

Spooky :)

Hope yours turn up soon.
