    No socks, but got some CC gift vouchers, so can start planning our next trip Smile

    Did buy both our sons socks, as they never seem to buy any themselves! Laughing

    We got a calendar with pictures of our grandchildren, and OH got slippers, but otherwise all our presents were edible or drinkable........a few bottles of wine, cheeses, various preserves, biscuits, sweets etc.

    Looking forward to sampling them all!

    No actual socks, but got some slippers that look like socks. Or jumpers. Or jumper socks. Either way very fetching in their way, but far too old for me... Happy

    As usual, the grandkids knew that I have a sweet tooth. So I won't be going near the sweetshop for a while.

    Santa  Sox  --  yes  Happy  but  obviously  cannot  use  'em  til  next  Christmas  or  it  might upset  the  horses  or  just  the  odd 
    mare  or  two  (  Thanks  Alf  Garnett  !!  Wink  )

    Hooray! Have just been given two pairs of 'caravan bed socks' by an old friend. Very fluffy and in Christmas colours. (Don't think she knows the 'van has central heating, but it's a lovely thought regardless).

    Yes but only one pair - Fantastic Granda - will wear them with pride. Will be heading for sales when things quiet down a bit but not for more socks !
