I have mainly patterned socks and three pairs with a combination of dots and stripes each pair slightly different. Got a pair out of the drawer and put one on then the other but something wasn't right so I took it off tried again, and again and after 10 mins eventually realised they weren't a matching pair...!!!

Had something digging into my back once whilst out and asked hubby to take a surreptitious look. It was a peg on my bra that I didn't notice when I put it on!

I thought I would be nice and buy my oh an new set of socks (he says I pinch his) when doing a shop, selected a lovely set that I would not mistake as mine :) a few days later he went to put them on... I bought adult size 8-11 or so I thought. what he ended up with was a kids size 8-11! anyone need some nice socks for a little boy? I blame fibrofog :) but I still haven't lived it down.

Hi all. your sock and knickers tales have cheered me up! :-) about 3 years ago my daughter started wearing odd sock (Apart from school socks which have to be black) because the washing machine seem to eat mine as well, now all her friends wear odd socks and so do I, my boyfriend and our friends, she seemed to have started a new trend, hope it catches on else where and no one would have to worry about matching socks again :-)

Maze. ..my daughter also wears odd socks and so do I now...... my son says that if you have time to worry about wearing matching socks, that you have too much time on your hands :)

Before my son left home I used to get him socks with days of the week on the soles. Extremely handy when he was slumped on sofa as it meant I knew what day it was.

Sounds like a tempting idea and it would solve the problem of drawers full of odd socks.

That gave me such a good laugh (sorry my friend). It is easily done.

Take care

Oh yes. Forgot about the inside out knickers. Thank goodness for labels on jumpers or I would always have them on back to front!!
