Gobbledigook · 14/05/2007 13:37

I'm not wearing boots - it's May and I refuse. I'd rather freeze

harpsichordcarrier · 14/05/2007 13:37

I have abandoned my sandals and put the boots back on
even me and I abandon my birkies only in the severest of conditions
it is officially flipping cold

bossykate · 14/05/2007 13:38

MrsSpoon · 14/05/2007 14:38

I do the boots, skirt and no tights thing too, especially at this time of year when it is neither summer nor winter.

I'm wearing boots, skirt and 40 denier ribbed tights today. It's bloody cold.
I feel sorry for the people in sandals and skirts, or flipflops and jeans.
Is it optimism or just stupidity!?

MrsSpoon · 14/05/2007 16:08

LOL, I went to the School without a jacket this afternoon, it was a mistake, started raining on the way back and it was very, cold.

Optimistic and stoopid, that's me!

beansontoast · 14/05/2007 16:12

there's an old (?) addage (?) ...

'shed nowt till May is out'

...which means yes indeed ggirl you can wear boots and a skirt!

JackieNo · 14/05/2007 16:13

Boots and opaque tights here today too.

JackieNo · 14/05/2007 16:14

(obviously not just boots and opaque tights - I am wearing other clothes as well)

hoxtonchick · 14/05/2007 17:40

jeans & boots for me today. gutted.

janeite · 14/05/2007 19:29

Boots and tights for me too today; it's flipping freezing. Am afraid I don't like boots without tights, unless on those of young and slender limbs; which I no longer have, I'm afraid.
