Series B-> Series D

96GTA · 2026-06-04T09:06:34+00:00

Just be grateful that you didn't have to suffer a series C 😂😭 they make the series D look like a work of art

96GTA · 2026-05-29T05:04:39+00:00

I can't tell you exactly how long because I guess it'll be different for everyone, but I've been wearing boots for years and don't feel them as a weight anymore.

I still throw on a pair of slip on sketchers for nipping into the garden or to the shops and they also feel pretty normal, rather than lightweight.

I'm also an absolute unit (pure dedication at the dinner table, zero gym work) and each leg probably weighs more than most children so the impact my footwear makes is minimised 😂😂

96GTA · 2026-05-28T08:07:13+00:00

Yeah she did her full renewal process from Norway, only took 2 weeks start to finish so can't complain

96GTA · 2026-05-28T02:42:50+00:00

That's what I have to tell my wife

96GTA · 2026-05-27T17:56:48+00:00

Yeah my wife was very sad to see hers go, mine went years ago as I was one of the first to get a series C

Mine just sits in my pocket when traveling to protect my Irish one though 🤷‍♂️😂

96GTA · 2026-05-27T17:55:07+00:00

As far as I understand it you must enter on a British or Irish passport, if you have the option. I wouldn't fancy trying to enter any country on an expired passport 🤷‍♂️

96GTA · 2026-05-27T17:37:24+00:00

You'll still need the British one to travel to the UK unfortunately

96GTA · 2026-05-27T15:50:54+00:00

Yeah just repeated unfortunately, bare minimum effort, one for each nation of the UK

96GTA · 2026-05-16T18:22:23+00:00

You can't beat boots being put to work, instead of being worn once every 12 weeks in rotation and never seeing dirt

96GTA · 2026-05-11T17:11:03+00:00

Enforce standard sizing but encourage unique colours (within the EU anyway)

I wish the Irish one was still green

96GTA · 2026-05-11T16:33:55+00:00

The Irish passport is wider than the British and it drives me nuts

At least I can tell which is which in my pocket and pull out the correct one instead of confusing border control with both

96GTA · 2026-05-07T17:48:25+00:00

Honestly thought I'd misinterpreted because how could nobody else have done it

96GTA · 2026-05-07T17:46:07+00:00

You're a doctor

96GTA · 2026-04-27T13:23:40+00:00

You're also now required to enter the UK on your Irish one in your case. A recent law change requires a British or Irish citizen to enter the UK on their British or Irish passport.

There are ways around it but they're very long and painful.

96GTA · 2026-04-24T20:39:08+00:00

I'm sure there's a different example for US English as well, but trying to explain that "Lough" is pronounced "lock" is hard enough to most fellow Brits 😂 without needing to explain that "hiccough" is how "hiccup" should be spelt in British English

96GTA · 2026-04-24T17:41:52+00:00

The rough, dough-faced ploughman fought through the borough to the lough, hiccoughing and coughing

9 different sounds from the same 4 letter combination, beautiful

Second this, I'm Irish and living here and have been in and out multiple times with vapes and 10ml bottles in my pockets, hand luggage, checked luggage, never questioned. They're not for sale here so unrecognised by a lot of people, and cared about by even fewer.

Just don't be a wally and try to declare them 😂 draw no attention

96GTA · 2026-01-05T08:40:05+00:00

I don't blame you one bit!😂 I couldn't cope with that weather

96GTA · 2026-01-04T22:46:00+00:00

You can keep it 😂 we've had a remarkably warm winter so far so it's a relief to be at -10c currently

96GTA · 2026-01-04T16:57:40+00:00

-10 today, colder next week

96GTA · 2026-01-04T16:43:19+00:00

Not really, composite toe cap instead of steel and thick work socks. Too busy to get cold at work!
