@dotcode Thanks Jeeves.

@knotnicky @dracos @dotcode That’d be great. Ideally you’d want a delivery person who was really good at telling you what fits or looks best on you.

Exactly the kind of high skill job we will “level up” the county to!

I ended up with a pair of our local “country clothing” shop’s own “Heritage 1845” brand wellies. They seem fine.

I’m choosing to think this commemorates… The first national general domestic poultry show in the U.K. held at London Zoo. Or maybe the patenting of the rubber band.

@dracos @dotcode Even so, I want to look at, and try on, several options.

@dotcode Herefordshire.

@dotcode Yeah, but I want to try them on without having to factor in a drive to the post office when they inevitably don't fit.

@dotcode Is it like Ask Jeeves? Please tell me how it can show me which shops near me stock these boots.

@dotcode They look very clever. If only their site answered the simple question "Where can I buy your clever wellies?"

@jwheare Unfortunately there's no Decathlon near us and I'd like to try them on before buying.

@philsheard Unfortunately there's no Decathlon near us and I'd like to try them on before buying.

“Yes, these wellies are very nice but do you have any with fewer signifiers?”

Shopping for a new pair of wellies after my cheap Dunlops split and wondering if there’s a good leftist welly of choice, because if I end up with Barbour, Hunter, Le Chameau, etc I might have to put myself up against the wall.

why are all the available alarm sounds on a phone either "circus music played by children" or "what if enya was the cops"

@philgyford Perhaps the best time to open a beer.
