It was my birthday recently. Someone bought me socks.
They obviously don't know me very well because they are long socks. I always wear ankle length.
They are made from 71% Cotton, 26% Polyester and 3% Elastane. They clearly didn't know I always wear 100% Cotton.
Worse still, they are striped. Surely they realise I only ever wear plain.
They didn't buy them from Marks and Spencer. I always buy my socks from them.
When I say 'long socks' they are actually boot socks. I'm wearing boots and the new socks work well with them.
The material works perfectly to keep my feet feeling comfortable but not too hot.
As for the stripes. My wife said they look great. Then she said 'Wearing stripy socks is one way for older people to have fun'.
Perhaps the person who gave me them knows me so well that she felt I was stuck in my ways and needed livening up.
Anyway, I'm off out to flash my socks in public. I know how to have a good time.
