shoes???? ah, no....rubber BOOTS with a cutesy name! They'd never bother if they just called 'em boots.

The boot invented by an English hero, SAH!

No connection to the Earl of Sandwich.

What did that English hero call them after inventing them? And what if his name had been Dumfries?

If only you Brits had had this during the war, we Yanks could've stayed home and slept in during the early 40's!

As opposed, I suppose, to sleeping with our women.

Yes......Aberystwyth

its that sort of place really, isn't it?

when I had a studio, we had this band in from Aberystwyth -The Elephant Men.

Their songs have always haunted me. there was one called Your Shit Stinks!, another about JCB machines..... the chorus went OH NO! ITs THE DIGGERS! and another called Hang 'EM High - a tribute to the Clint Eastwood film.

I often wonder what became of them - they were delightful people.
