that last post confused me somewaht, is that boots in footwear or boots as in the british chemists who sell chemisty stuff? do boots even exist in austria?

I'm in Germany myself, but there's no Boots chemist here. I meant footwear. Medieval footwear, to be exact!

What's a boots chemist?

im sorry about posting austria, i thought you were tavaronwhere can you buy these boots from? myself i have a pair of cowbaoy boots and then i have some possibly austrian or maybe russian army boots the army boots came with studs in the soles but made it hard to walk on concerete and things that werent grass or mud.

I'll get some custom made! I know a guy who does them wel, eh did my father's! Where'd you get the army boots? Those would be good for my man's medieval outfit.

i got them from a carboot sale. do you have tose in germany?

Not legally

We do have a lot of flea markets, I'll look at those... I know a source for russian army boots, but they're only rubber soled. And you can only trample well in hobnailed ones. I've been praticing the "male walk" from Monstrous Regiment specially

dont forget your socks!

what's a boots chemist, then? please explain

oh,sorry. "boots" is the name of a company, they are a chemist. simple as that.

I think my problem lies with the upper socks

Boots is, I presume, just a chain of chemists, our Apotheken all seem to be independent

thanks

uppersocks! i like it. how about an middle cushon or two, then you would just look tubby.

Oh, I am chubby already

Just to join in: i don't own any boots, footwear or otherwise. Although my sister owns two Caterpillars. they climbed a mountain last week!

P.s. It's the fist one, about the discovery of the Roundworld. Please do not discuss until I'm in Italy, lol, as I'm not reading it till then!

Same goes for Falling Sideways, which looks hilarious, but strange...just the way I like em, lol

Well, I'm back! When i said "don't discuss" i didn't mean... ah well.

i would like to prompt a debate about...

"The Underside of the Disc"

Raise your towel if you wish to contribute!

Another tosy-turvey world?An Elephant mudbath? A huge Ocean, thus contributing to the "arrangements" that get water back up onto the Disc?

i read (i think its in the colour of magic) that well at least the hub of the underside is, ice.

well, I'd say rock, very possible that there is ice on it

Probabyl looks like the lower shell of a turtle - or were you talking about the disc itself?
