Yeah, red socks. W indeed TF? We are taking them to a charity shop, as seems wrong to bin them, but why on earth would anyone think that was a good idea? F'ing weird, man.

Let's take them to Red Cross. Plastic gloves would be more appropriate.

And I notice that they think only men buy/sell houses - the socks are size 6-11. I'm going to drop them through S & P's letterbox and I recommend that everyone does

Presumably they only send to high value properties as they don't deal with " affordable homes" do they?

I usually dislike with a vengeance all the advertising garb that comes through my letter box, but these Red (Labour) Socks were quite a pleasant surprise & they're 70% cotton no less!
One can't go wrong with a pair of socks?
The Strutt & Parker logo is printed where nobody can see it & it will soon wear off.
