Kitchen Garden Forum

I just went round to mine in my shorts, top and wellies and got the strangest look from a neighbour.
I came home to look in the mirror; but I look no worse than usual
Ok-It has been raining an windy all day; but it has stopped now!
Do you care what you wear??

I find spandex shorts, a boob tube and platform shoes to keep me out of the mud about fits the bill Oh, and dob't forget the gloves...

Much to the embaressment of my wife & children I do not care much what I wear.

When gardening the rule has to be plenty of pockets.

Usually boots (safety type), army trousers (tie up ankles), t-shirt, barbour-type gillet, or padded gilet. When it gets warm, the trousers get dropped ( ) in favour of longish shorts and if not doing anything "sharp" or "heavy" then out come the sandals.

Blimey Peter, I'm glad I have a drink poured out!

Sorry Chantal, I tend to have that effect on the ladies.

Hmmnnnn - shorts and a swimming top or otherwise, plus wellies.

Oh Glad I'm not different then!
Peter what BEAST

I normally wear one of my hand me down Frank Sinartra suits, and my ever faithful hobnail boots
I don't give a monkeys about fashion, it seems to go round so fast these days, if it's out of fashion today it will be back in in a few years time.
As long as it is practical i will wear it.
Chantal what on earth is a boob tube.

Kind regards Old Herbaceous.

Theres no fool like an old fool.

A boob tube is just an elasticated tube that goes up and over your boobs and stops there. No straps so wear it and pray...

Herby it really wouldn't suit you
A suit what a dapper!!

You're a tough old lot,I'm a shirt,jumper,body warmer,coat,thick jeans,two pairs of socks and hiking boots woman myself.Expose my limbs to the weather? Not on your nellie!

I think that Herby likes to get the white suit out, medallion, chest wig and cuban heels I bet Herby's the Tony Ferino of the lotties

Personally, I wear jeans, t-shirt and a bobble hat if it's a bit nippy. Also a fleece if needed. Instead of wellies I either wear hiking boots or horse riding boots as they are more comfy than wellies.

Besides, i'm built for comfort, not speed

r u being rude
comfort not speed
im v sensitive i am
as 4 herby with chest wig ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

I find my sombrero is excellent for keeping the sun off me when I am toiling on the plot....the rim does fill up with rain though and it can get a bit floppy!!!!

..and I bet he says"you know an allotment is just like a woman...."
