Aha, I understand now the need for the boots for stablising in a stationary position. Running all over the hills would be an unusually tiring form of foreplay. > Can you imagine the kick a horse could give you with its hind legs? I recall a bit about horses from my Virginia days. One kick and you'd no longer have that stool you're standing on. Yes, I can imagine the difficulty. > And besides, their legs are too thick to fit inside your wellies. I bow to your knowledge about what will or will not fit inside your wellies. > Sheep are the soft option, as it were. I believe my education is nearing completion with this one. :-) Debra Shea P.S.
