    I also buy the boy's loads of socks cause I hate pairing them and anyone with teenage boys will know the often find them in pair's of one!!

    Do what my teenage DS2 does - wears pairs of unmatched socks! His argument is that it's more probable to pull out 2 unmatching socks from his drawer in the dark, so he doesn't spend/waste time searching for 2 that match!

    OH only has black socks now for this reason - I hate matching them up, so now he has all black, and I don't even put them into pairs, they all go in the drawer and he pulls out what he wants :D

    I do this for DS too - he has grey ankle socks for school and white trainer socks for all other occasions. So he has a 50/50 chance of getting a match. :D

    This is the other DS - but then again most things he wears are black! Guess thats what you get for a 6ft anime-watching, rock-soc member with hair longer than his mum!!

    I have two more brothers than I need and all the sons I could wish for!

    That's probably why I like nephews, they loll around the place, take up a lot of room, eat meals the size of a house - but then they GO HOME :rotfl: :rotfl:
