I used to buy my dad socks, worked out cheap the last few years he was alive because he only had one leg then, so I used to buy a pair and give him one at Xmas and the other in July on his birthday lol! Davex |

My Dad always gets garish patterned socks (along with some other stuff) It's his way of rebeling when my Mum says 'You can't wear those!!!!' He can turn around and point out they were a gift so it would be ungrateful not too. :o) Bird feeder and binoculars. |

Log on to www(.)firebox(.)com I have just ordered some little stocking fillers from there. However the more I looked the greater was my wish for some of the items - and I shall not be seeing seventy again. It's quite a good site. Happy hunting. P.S. I can vouch for the delivery - my first order arrived this morning. Two days! |
