Hello Everyone smile
Just wanted to get this in first wink

Fancy some verbal jousting; a bit of rumble; a good old punch up?

Well, you're in the right place! Enjoy!

Any ideas for potential topics please?

I wear socks with slippers on top! Is that double chav?

Mollygo Thu 18-Feb-21 17:16:30

grandmajet it’s been so cold that I’ve occasionally worn slipper-socks with slippers on top. I hate to think where that would place me on the chaviness scale!

I have now spent a fortune on reduced Nordic socks!!

This thread is entirely to blame.

Which make did you get ? I bought Sigur

Whitewavemark2 Thu 18-Feb-21 17:34:43

I put in Nordic Socks and Nordic Socks popped up, they were on offer £10 off so I bought two lots for me and two lots for DH?. Went over the top really, but they will be put away for next year.

grandmajet Thu 18-Feb-21 17:35:34

You’re definitely upper class gransnetters! With your Nordic socks!

Whitewavemark2 Thu 18-Feb-21 17:36:08

I’ve just looked . They are Sigur ???.

Hurray for Casdon, back to cushions. Pressing FannyC’s buttons, suck on that Fanny ?

Bloody hell Laura
That's a bit racey pacey blush

What size did you get btw - they seem on the small side to me

MissAdventure Thu 18-Feb-21 17:50:19

Sorry, but you just have big feet.

LauraNorder Thu 18-Feb-21 17:50:43

I knew you were out there FannyC in spite of your boredom, sitting on your plump velvet cushion. Got your attention

MissAdventure Thu 18-Feb-21 17:51:02

Oh, forgot to say hth.

I'm worried about the influx of Nordic socks. What about our British socks?

MissAdventure Thu 18-Feb-21 17:52:36

Oh here we go.
Jingoistic sock waving again!

Made in China no doubt

MissAdventure

Sorry, but you just have big feet.

If I said it once I’ve said it many times, stop making personal comments about my feet

LauraNorder Thu 18-Feb-21 17:59:34

I’m very proud of our sock industry (do we have one?) and all our wonderful sock makers.
I have been know to knit a pair of socks, but I was in France at the time so not British made socks

MissAdventure Thu 18-Feb-21 18:00:12

I hope you're not putting your foot down.
We don't need earth tremors on top of everything else.

Whitewavemark2 Thu 18-Feb-21 18:00:37

I’m a size 6 so got medium.

Why do people keep interrupting so rudely?

LauraNorder Thu 18-Feb-21 18:02:16

Now you’ve put your foot in it MissAdventure
Are you flouncing off Suziewoozie?

MissAdventure Thu 18-Feb-21 18:03:15

Put my foot in what, exactly?
Your socks?

suziewoozie Thu 18-Feb-21 18:04:08

Note the origins of these ( admittedly stylish) socks

suziewoozie Thu 18-Feb-21 18:06:08

And here

Barmeyoldbat Thu 18-Feb-21 18:07:33

Missadventure after asking to join your gang I have decided to not bother after you insulted me over wearing socks. So I will be in my own Nordic Sock gang. So there.

suziewoozie Thu 18-Feb-21 18:08:12

And no argument is complete without this bit of utter GFery
