Well I must have been a good boy . In my Christmas stocking was a new pair of overalls with knee pads !


Best wishes to all

Stockings for Christmas ? („men in tights“?).

Or have I gotten it completely wrong ?

Translation: lederhosen.

But oooh I'd love a pair of overalls with kneed pads! Brilliant idea.

They are brilliant but take a lot of getting used to because your knees touch down before you expect them too. You're also a couple of inches higher up than usual too.

Great for the knees though. Especially when SWMBO makes your grovel for workshop time. :wrench: :hammer:
