    I would love to wear socks with toes in them, but due to the fact that my feet are webbed, this would be an impossibility - oh hum:sad:

    I think we need to get back on-topic! :rotfl:

    My OH has quite a number of socks, including ones that are different colours that he claims are pairs, and a whole bunch that he reckons aren't actually his. Haven't as yet dared to ask who they belong to if they are not his....

    I love socks me...... wear them to bed even in the summer. It has to be global warming hot before I don't wear them.

    I have my faves on right now - v boring brown ones but the feel nice on my feet :D . Actually my real faves are a cow head ones but can't wear them to bed as when I turn over their heads stick into me :o .

    My odd socks are all in a little yellow basket and live there until I decide their other half is never going to turn up. Then the day after I throw them out the other one turns up, usually in the bottom of a quilt cover :confused: . Unless the one I threw out has smuggled himself back into the house :rolleyes: .

    They help me save money by keeping my tootsies warm so I don't have to turn the heating up :T :A :T
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    It could be the new Hollywood Blockbuster!
    Attack of the killer socks

    Picture the scene,
    Leeds, West Yorks, all the discarded socks form an army and march into the City Centre taking revenge on all who dare to get close enough to smell them

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.
