“Always buy the tallest wellies so the water knows when to stop.”
The Sage
The Sage has crossed many puddles, fields, and suspiciously damp shortcuts, and from these journeys he offers a simple rule: “Always buy the tallest wellies so the water knows when to stop.”
According to The Sage, water is a deeply respectful substance. It rises only until it encounters a clear signal of authority. Tall wellies, he explains, send exactly that message. Short wellies invite ambition. Tall wellies establish boundaries. Extra-tall wellies suggest you are not to be messed with.
The Sage admits that water occasionally ignores this advice, but he insists that this is a failure of attitude, not footwear. If your wellies are tall enough, brightly coloured enough, and worn with sufficient confidence, the water will usually pause, reconsider, and go somewhere else. True dryness, after all, begins with belief.
