Random Irritations

Definitely. Transformative.

Mine were about £20-25 but I've had them a while now. Wash every couple of wears, let them dry naturally.

They feel slightly odd when you first put them on but after about 10 seconds you forget about them. It's like the awkward feeling when you first put a base layer on, and then it's gone.

Never let me down, you don't worry about looking for a ball in the long, wet, grass for example.

I wash mine after every round, had them for two years - they are excellent.

I was looking at the cold weather socks, which is really when I would want them for their waterproof qualities. I’m less bothered about wet feet in warm weather.

The cold weather ones are expensive.

Wear a normal pair inside a waterproof pair, your feet staying dry will stay warm.

The cold weather ones are more meant for serious trekking across rough terrain, not walking round a golf course for four hours.

My UU shoes are going strong in to their 3rd winter, spent lots of time in the wet rough on Wednesday and feet were bone dry.

What are UU shoes?

 

[Lord Tyrion]

I have sweet feet

 

[Lord Tyrion]

What are UU shoes?

I'm guessing Under Armour, should be UA. Probably

Sorry yes UA.

Just had a look - at £45 a pair I’d rather get wet feet. And besides, whenever I put a pair of socks in the wash, I only ever get one sock back.

I swear my wife eats them.

No, she doesn't. The other sock always comes back as a Tupperware lid that you have no container for

A blooming Christmas advert. First of the year that I have seen. Ridiculous as it’s only the beginning of November.

47 days to go, and on 3 days to go you'll be scouring Amazon!

Nah. I hate Christmas. It’s the least wonderful time of the year.

My wife and I are grumps as well. We don't play the buy a present for each other pressure. We are good with dinner and meeting up with family......the rest, not so much. And....like several other holidays, the commercial push to buy buy buy we find annoying.

Falling asleep watching tv.

Was watching an episode of Gen Z last night. Next thing I knew, something else was on. The missus said “you fell asleep “. I put Gen Z back on, fast forwarded to the last bit I remembered, started watching again, promptly fell asleep again!

It’s an age thing.

"I wasnt sleeping, I was thinking".

"I wasnt sleeping, I was thinking".

It’s ridiculous, but every time she says “you fell asleep”, I indignantly say “no I didn’t”, like it’s a sign of weakness.

I'd like to go overseas and play golf at Christmas. No chance, I'm married to the blooming Xmas Fairy!

My wife does this, every time, gets very grumpy about the accusation . 'but you were asleep ' I tell her. 'No I wasn't '
