warm, comfy, waterproof and good for wearing all day, any recommendations? as my salomans have just about been finished off by the latest snow
Shimano MT90's

do not need to be biking specific
My HiTec V-Lites are doing ok so far (2 winters), and had the advantage of being cheap as chips (TKMaxx FTW). Comfy, light and reasonably weatherproof 🙂

aside from my zamberlan walking boots ive been wearing keen targhees, dry, warm, light weight and the roomy toe box means you can wiggle.
Had my karrimor events for years comfy warm and waterproof what more do you need.
Are they your legs John?
Meindl. Takes about 200 miles to wear them in mind...
yes. totally hairless
five tens with merino wool & sealskins socks over the top do the job for me. they are quick for a bit of off the bike / unavoidable portage too. 
I have been mostly wearing some Jack Wolfskin hunter boots similar to these, mine have a removable thinsulate inner boot and a retractable crampon in the heel. They are huge but chuffin' warm and completley snow proof.
Also worn my Raichle All Degree GTX but they have a very stiff last so not ideal for general wear. They are however super warm and water proof.

If they're anything like the cycling jacket I bought fromn ALDI a few months back then they'll be superb! I'm convinced it's an unbranded big name item but I've not figured out which one yet. Very warm, excellent quality cloth, fits perfectly.
I've got two pairs of Lidl winter boots and they're fantastic value for money, and they've been invaluable this winter in the snow, with a pair of M&S double layer wool socks in. Seriously tempted by a pair of these though:

Fantastic value by the look of them.
Keen sandals and SealSkinz socks with a liner sock.
Out today for 3 hours, toasty toes.
I'm sure they're lovely boots, but I'd look pretty stupid in that dress.
Another vote for cheap 'n cheerful HiTecs, warm and comfortable.
standard, ordinary Catapillar boots. Its only a bit of snow, not an attempt to reach the pole. Warm and grip well in the snow. Wear them the rest of the year too and they won't wear out any time between now and when you die.
you want warm......
