[Ain't Nobody Here]

The patient is fine, thanks . Still walking about with no socks on though . I made him put some on . He says it's not that sore and he'd rather have them than look like a dork at school with hillwalking boots .

That reminds me that years ago my Mum said I'd know when I was grown up when I wore wellies to town when it was snowing.......I wore my wellies to the Co-op yesterday

 

Oh no! - 50 something and I've grown up at last

My son said the same about wearing a coat to school. We even bought him a trenchcoat when he was at college - for a trip to Germany when it was colder there than here. He never wore it. Now for the last couple of years you can't get it off him. It has suddenly become . Although I tend to walk around without anything on my feet - kind of like the female version of Fred Flintstone!

Variation on that theme Lesley............a coat is what you wear when your mum is cold

Too true

[Cooks]

my children with not wear coats full stop. the amount of money I have wasted on coats. So I bought them a really thick hoodie top and they wear those over their clothing... best I could get them to wear.

 

I am glad he's ok ANH they looked sore!

I never wear coats The only one I have is a ski jacket that I'd wear if we were going sledging/to the park but other than that its just hoodies/jackets

I can see the sense in waterproof jackety things that you can scrunch up in the bottom of a bag ... but always forget mine

I'm always too hot and then there's nowhere to put it so it's carrying it round all day

Glad it's not just my kids who refuse to wear coats or decent footwear. Hope the chillblains are ok. I used to get them on my toes when I was a kid. I can just remember the awful itching, it drove me to distraction!!

[henriette]

I suffer from terrible chilblains and I sympathise so much! I used to use Snowfire, which I reckoned worked well, then I tried Belmosa which was good too. The best solution, without any doubt though, is a pair of Crocs! (plus a pair of warm socks) The little "Ooops, word censored!"bles inside the foot of the Croc keeps/gets the circulation going. I come in from the cold with freezing feet, but on my Crocs and within a short time feet are warm and no chilblains. My daughter has the same problem with chilblains and she was told to wear Crocs then bought me a pair.

 

(Incidentally, I have also been told many times about using wee, but haven't tried it.)
