I live in the north and people talk to strangers all the time. Southerners comment on how friendly people in the north are quite a lot. Certainly when i speak to them when they're visiting the Lakes
People do engage in chatting with strangers in the UK, people are always friendly. The woman in the film has probably not been outside London or beyond major city centres. People always used to speak to each other at bus stops and on buses but mobile phones seem to have taken the social conversation with strangers away.
Rain boots must be American, it's a new one on me. We call the long ones Wellingtons the short ones that go over exisiting shoes used to be called galoshas.
I’m 55 born in the uk lived here all my life and Never went shopping for water proof shoes. I’ve never considered water proof shoes I just buy shoes mostly sketchers these days because I’m old and need comfort lol
Doing a driving test in the US even if they take you out of a parking lot is so easy! In the UK you have to do many hrs of driving lessons with an actual driving instructor. I did my driving in HS when I lived in the US and it was teacher that taught us. It was so bloody easy! The test itself is very, very hard here in the UK in comparison too. Plus you learn in a manual, unless you are only going to drive and automatic as you will not be allowed to drive a manual if you took an automatic test. It's wild to me that most Americans can't drive a manual car! Indian food in the US tastes nothing like Indian food in the UK! I have never owned waterproof shoes and don't know anyone that has. I just spray my suede boots etc. The only waterproof boots I can think of are Wellies.
*my And what are you 5?? Sure if you've never left a city you may not get wet feet but that is just you not understanding the majority of your countrymen. Have you really never walked through a frosty field early in the morning??? No shoe other than a Welly is coming out of that without being drenched through
@@pauline-glitterbugcrafts I was a bit confused too. I think she meant wellies? But leather shoes are water-proof - one of the reasons most people own Docs? I've only worn my actual wellies when walking in the country in mud. And, as someone else said, trainers are also waterproof. So no...I've never gone shopping for water-proof shoes either.
@@fayedavies3086 branstons baked beans, mash, knob of lightly salted lurpak, Lincolshire sausages from the butchers, brown sauce(HP) and a few turns of black pepper will always be my favorite quick/easy meal!
Waterproof shoes need to be real leather or even some vegan versions. Once you break them in they are usually comfortable. I personally spend extra on good quality shoes and jackets. She would be better buying from an outdoors shop as they have more variety and you can even get trainer like shoes. To be fair when I use normal trainers I don’t get wet feet. I think the only time I really worry about wet feet is if it snows
I just wear sketchers and they're fine in the rain - you don't need wellies or something unless your going to be directly splashing through deep puddles or something. Having baked beans with pizza is not normal here.
I wear Gortex walking boots in winter. There are different brands that are made with Gortex material. They also make shoes in this material. Just make sure they are lightweight. Granted I only wear jeans and boots would look ugly with a skirt or dress! They only time I wear my Hunters is when I’m volunteering for a conservation group.
I was a roofer for 20 years but I’m disabled now after the covid jab so I have an electric wheelchair & so I wear SEAL SKINZ socks, snood etc when I go out. There quite expensive but for an example, the socks, £30 but you can put the sock over your hand & run it under the tap for as long as you like, bone dry , it’s good gear, trust me
I have copied and pasted the following: "The United Kingdom is the country that eats the most baked beans in the world, consuming more than the rest of the world combined. The British eat over 2 million cans of baked beans per day." "Originally, Heinz Baked Beans were prepared in the traditional United States manner for sales in Ireland and Great Britain. Over time, the recipe was altered to a less sweet tomato sauce with a mix of herbs and spices but without maple syrup, molasses, or brown sugar to appeal to the tastes of the United Kingdom.[20] This is the version of baked beans most commonly eaten outside of the United States. Baked beans are commonly eaten on toast ("beans on toast") or as part of a full breakfast.[20] Heinz Baked Beans remains the best-selling brand in the UK.[24] The Baked Bean Museum of Excellence in Port Talbot, Wales, was dedicated to baked beans"
I live in Glasgow, Scotland and believe me we have loads of rain and I have never heard of or owned waterproof shoes. I don't even know what they are. Trainers all the way but waterproof vortex jackets.
Waterproof shoes can be a benefit in the snow and in heavy rain but in general you don't need them, nor do I wear them. I only own one pair of Hunter boots which are waterproof and that's it. But rarely ever wear them.
Waterproof shoes?????? I don't know anyone who wears water[roof shoes. We wear normal shoes. Unless she means Wellies which nobody puts on just because it's raining unless you're a toff or live in the countryside.
Was she talking about wellies? Only waterproof footwear I've ever bought- otherwise its just soggy socks and drying the shoes out on the radiators overnight hoping theyll dry out for the next day.😂
You want waterproof shoes? Why? are you walking in a stream? Otherwise all good shoes give protection. Me I buy ECCO shoes and their leather trainers are expensive but their beauty is that I have never had to 'break' them in.
Waterproof shoes? I have a horrible feeling she means some cheap Chinese crap off ebay/Amazon, thats made of pure plastic. Good outdoor shoes with sown in tongues is what you need to not get wet feet, or wellies if you are going full on.
Waterproof shoes???? What are they? Wellies??. 😂😂😂

If us Brits really are bored and need to do something, we go for a walk, and it usually ends at the pub. 😊

I’d like to see you reacting to driving in the UK. Especially in the country side.
Waterproof shoe's why, I wear me trainers never had wet feet yet
*my

Wellington boots named after the Duke of Wellington. Us Brits call them Wellies for short. No self respecting Brit would be without them.
@fleuriebottle almost no one living in cities owns a pair of wellies, they're really not that vital to being a self respecting Brit.
Generally speaking baked beans can be eaten with just about anything fried
I put it over mash potato lol
@@fayedavies3086 branstons baked beans, mash, knob of lightly salted lurpak, Lincolshire sausages from the butchers, brown sauce(HP) and a few turns of black pepper will always be my favorite quick/easy meal!
🫘🍕As a Brit beanz and pizza is not a thing. That combo sounds nuts
Try putting a scotch pie with some baked beans on a buttered crispy morning roll
Ruby Murray (curry) is now our national dish.
Chicken biryanis…….yum.

She would not be saying that life is at a slower pace in the UK if she had done the jobs I did!
Try these - Salomon XA Pro 3D V9 GORE-TEX Trail Running Shoes.

Most normal average British/English ppl or citizen just wear your everyday leather trainers/sneakers/shoes/loafers
Don't know about waterproof shoes, I use Skeetex boots.
Leather shoes are waterproof
Waterproof shoes? Maybe she means wellies, what is she talking about?
Was she talking about wellies? Only waterproof footwear I've ever bought- otherwise its just soggy socks and drying the shoes out on the radiators overnight hoping theyll dry out for the next day.😂
Darn yanks movin here to UK
Leather is waterproof so just buy a pair of leather shoes Dr Martens are my favourites
You want waterproof shoes? Why? are you walking in a stream? Otherwise all good shoes give protection. Me I buy ECCO shoes and their leather trainers are expensive but their beauty is that I have never had to 'break' them in.
Why waterproof shoes every day shoes are good
I found clarks and got some good zip on leather boots and the spray for leather to keep them rain proof is the only way to go.
