Bloody hell, I panicked then when I clicked on your link for mum boots wondering what I might find. But thank the lord they look nothing like my swish patent leather riding boots that I wore on Saturday for my weekend trip to London.

I am taking my pert size 10 arse clad in topshop skinnies and biker boots to the aquarium today with the kids. I reserve my right to take the jammy dodgers i found in the cupboard with me IN A TUPPERWARE.

I might even bring WETWIPES too.

I have been thinking of biker boots. Anyone recommend decent ones?

Mine are flatter than those ones. More brogue type here

bellavita · 23/02/2011 11:35

and straight legged jeans... French Connection.

FluffyMummy123 · 23/02/2011 11:36

OP posts:
MmeLindt · 23/02/2011 11:37

LOL at the wellies. That is weird, why would you go out in wellies, unless you were walking the dog over fields?

bellavita · 23/02/2011 11:37

bellavita · 23/02/2011 11:38

Mme, I cannot believe you have fat calves Shock

FluffyMummy123 · 23/02/2011 11:38

TrillianAstra · 23/02/2011 11:38

I have some mum boots. Bought them a long time ago, there's nothing wrong with them so I can't get rid of them. Don't wear them though.

FluffyMummy123 · 23/02/2011 11:39

give them to your kid as a craft project TA

Rannaldini · 23/02/2011 11:39
