Boots n all Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 First of all congratulations to those winners , There are some very big tossers amongst you . The boots that are to be awarded to you are a typical Australian Elastic sided boot that is of course Australian made and has a retail value of about $79.95. Now to get your measurement of size you will need to take an A4 size piece of paper and place a short side against the wall, place your heel against the same wall on top of the piece of paper, mark the end of the longest digit and then a mark either side of the metatarsal (ball of your foot) now give me those two measurements in millimetres as well as the measurement of the circumference of your metatarsal. When doing this don't add anything , that's my job, you have a choice of black or brown. You can E-mail me your details, Phatoscarlover you might as well come to the factory yourself if you have time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phatoscarlover Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I will do dave, your instructions are all too hard for me! We belive the biggest tosser was Kram with something like 35m! Down hill with the wind though ofcourse! Cheers Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boots n all Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 the fatest part of your foot, the part where the toes are joined to the rest of the foot known as the "metatarsal"...good luck finding it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phatoscarlover Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 David you shouldnt have explained it and just told him to go looking for his "metatarsal", would have been hours of laughs! Enjoy the search owen im taking the ezy way out! lol Cheers Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newo Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 Well I found it and measured. 105mm wide. I hadn't looked at the prize for the boot throw before the day so when they told me I had won some boots I didn't believe them. It makes sense why we were having a boot throwing comp at a cichlid bbq now :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boots n all Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 , Sorry Newo, l should not have laughed but l had some friends over (Foot Freaks) that said l should have said it was just back from the "Phalanges"(Toes) we are a group of "Boot makers with a twist" or is that a group of "Twisted Book makers" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boots n all Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 you have to laugh, it is amazing, most people have sent me their measurements, some have left off the colour they want but ALL have failed to give me a postal address for me to send the boots to, but then again l guess l could E-mail the boots to them So could all winners please send a new e-mail that contains these three items 1/ Measurements (3 of them) 2/ Colour you want (Black or Brown) 3/ A Postal address (maybe a land line Number too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aquaman Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Melbourne Ladies/kids = Nil Didn't we get a winner for the ladies/kids? I remember Janine throwing a pretty good one but not sure if she threw the winner or not (it's just a blur) Cheers Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
