| What are "wellies"? -- some sort of rain gear, I presume.

I had a private bet with myself whether Wellies would translate from

"Wellies" - informal abbreviation for "Wellington Boots", rubber galosh
perhaps, although a galosh is defined as a rubber overshoe (in my
dictionary at least), a Wellington boot is either calf or knee high.
