homebase or b&q usually at this time of year.

Fimbo · 15/11/2007 14:44

B & Q (although phone and check first)

Millets
garden centre

LadyMuck · 15/11/2007 14:46

Our local garden centre does them year round.

Peachy · 15/11/2007 14:46

Asda have them

SlightlyMadScreachingSirens · 15/11/2007 14:47

Brantano?

Piggy · 15/11/2007 14:47

On line? When do you need them by? I got mine from Hunters on-line but I am a wellie ponce and country dweller.

How about Woolworths?

Fimbo · 15/11/2007 14:48

B&Q Warehouse not the smaller places

Garden centres are another safe bet

AitchTwoOh · 15/11/2007 14:48

thy just closed my local-ish brantano, malheureusment. part of me really can't be bothered taking the car out, i wish there was somewhere local but i doubt it. all these places sound out-of-town to me.

Garden centres do them all year round. See if Google finds you a Wyevale nearby.

LadyOfTheFlowers · 15/11/2007 14:50

Countrywide stores.
Some nice hunters.
Blue for you, green for dh.

AitchTwoOh · 15/11/2007 15:26

Eek! OK - firstly there is a Brantano in Dundee, there's a garden centre in Cupar, also one in St A - hang on - will scout about and get back to you.

Habbibu · 15/11/2007 15:49

Right - ok - rang Clarks in St A, and they sell them starting at a size 4. They are on Market St. I imagine you'll come through Cupar and/or St A on the way. St Andrews woolworths (also Market St) starts at size 4. Cupar Garden Centre (trading estate just on the A91) have them - smallest is size 5. My child isn't walking yet, so I have No Idea about shoe sizes.

Habbibu · 15/11/2007 15:50

Oh - I've just been asking about children's wellies - are they for you/dh?

Habbibu · 15/11/2007 15:55

Bah. I have now read the thread title. Hold on...

Ok - Cupar Garden Centre still ok. Lovely ladies in Clarks shop said Moshulu, Mostyn Mackenzie and D&E in St A should all sell them. First 2 on market St, last on south st.

Habbibu · 15/11/2007 15:57

Brantano Dundee is here close to Tay bridge if you're coming via A90.

Habbibu · 15/11/2007 15:59

Have to say that I don't think of myself as living in The Country at all...
