Guest Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 A large bag of odd socks. You know how socks diappear in the washing machine? Well I have an Omlet bag full off odd socks - I cleared out behind the boys beds this morning, and I now have pairs for probably 3/4's of the odd socks in the Omlet bag. It was hanging on the back of the cupboard door yesterday, but now it's not.... Did the sock fairies drop it into your laundry pile by mistake??

Egluntyne Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 I am led to believe that the rings around Saturn are composed entirely of odd socks and lost luggage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Frugal Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 A few years ago we had a rather nasty, naughty fairy come to live with us. She was called the "Tiddle on the floor Fairy" ! Boys, eh ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theherd123 Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Claret you have reminded me of when a friend of mine went shopping wearing odd shoes! She didnt realise until she was approached by a stranger who asked if she had noticed she was wearing odd shoes & had she left one in a shop when she was trying new ones on! We still laugh about it even now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 I once saw a bloke on the tube wearing odd shoes - both black, but completely different styles - you'd think he'd have noticed that they felt odd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theherd123 Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 (edited) That was the same as my friend - both black but different size heels!!! When she realised she started to have a very pronounced hobble Edited October 10, 2006 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trish Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Clare, my boys wear odd socks whenever they're not at school. They tell me it's the thing to do but I think They are just being too lazy to pair their socks up. Shona, I think your socks may be here, we seem to have lots of odd socks that I don't remember buying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Shona, I think your socks may be here, we seem to have lots of odd socks that I don't remember buying. Right-ho - can you leave them out for the sock fairy, with a big note on them, telling her to get them back up here please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Man Banned Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Anyone lost their sock fairy - some of my socks have gone missing and as they have days of the week on them I'm getting a bit kerfuffled! (Don't mock - working 6 days and being off 3 is taking it's toll on me - it's no fun thinking (or feeling) like it's Wednesday when it's really SATURDAY!

She puts my socks in OH's drawer Poor Andrew. I'm befuddled too as I have socks black with different shades of pink that are now odd (on a chocolate theme ) and usually have at least 7 odd socks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 I just buy all black socks, that way if I lose one, the spare sock will go with others. I only wear them at weekends anyway. Rosie's are all white ones for school, so they're the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Socks just confuse me.... both hubby and son have to wear black socks for work/ school, and they've both got big feet (son size 9, hubby size 11) I can't work out who's socks are whose, so usually one has a drawer full of the things, and the other has none.... and boy don't they both moan I keep saying that I will never sort out socks again, but then they make a great mess as they sort through the sock ple. I want a sock fairy Daughter wears white socks... and I never wear the things at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
