    I get upset when a sock goes missing, I end up feeling sorry for the existing one, I wonder where they go…Sock Heaven maybe?

    Congratulations on the land, I'm going over to have a look

    Yes I do. I think the washing machine eats them:(. Someone on the Decorating Forum mentioned they use Whizz Pegs to hold the socks together in the washing machine. Maybe we need to place a mass order with Whizz Pegs lol

    I try to make my kids wear odd socks. (Popular theory is that the washing machine somehow swallows some). But unfortunately Mr 9 with Aspergers demands that every sock is the same and has to feel just right. Even if they look alike … he knows the difference. And heaven help us, he persists until he finds the right match.
    God Bless him.
    Miss 7, without Aspergers, is just happy if they are roughly the right colour and don't have any holes in them.
    I think I could be a millionairess if it wasn't for all the extra socks, undies and clothes I need to buy … but hey, it's worth it.!

    I hate lost sock syndrome. I'm told they can disappear into mysterious parts of the washing machine … but I am yet to find them. My theory is that there are really evil sock stealing elves out there, invented by men, just to send us crazy.

    That pic looks like our place! My youngest loves to wear odd socks and does so intentionally, not just because he can't find the mate!

    Throw them out I say – too many other things to worry about.
