I'm keeping mine anyway. I knew they used them but didn't have anything to back it up.

(322 posts so far) | | I was sure that when we discussed this originally that I would have presented evidence, as usual we tend to ask thes sort of uniform questions without any notice. I thought we just end up going round in circles.

| | Steves question was just a simple question that needed a yes or no. Couldn't see the point of the dicussion. Bee in bonnet comes to mind.
We have used these gaiters for years, i remember having them when we filmed Vanity Fair because I had to convince them that these were OK.
I do remember us discussing it and I was totally sure it had been reserched but the brain doesn't always work when you need it to.
