The big factories in Coventry used to be like that, you just needed to know who to ask and you could get most job done.

You got to live in Yorkshire didn't you!I can tell you exactly what I was doing that day... It was my first visit to Yorkshire and I was stopping in Haworth with my then friend, eventual girlfriend, now ex/Covid bubble pal. The TV news was on with sound turned down and I saw the SAS going in and thought WTF is going on there!?
Mid-20s to mid-60s in the blink of an eye, and with none of the good things that I had hoped for happening in between...
Oh, well, maybe I will have a long and happy retirement? Pretty please, oh imaginary being controlling such matters!
You may have a point. I will go sock hunting tomorrow.

It's no coincidence!
My friend moved to Hebden Bridge and I used to go there to visit her. That led to me going to university in Manchester/Salford and I'd come across to West Yorkshire a couple of times a month, then I moved here after I graduated.

I am with Boldon Lad in so far as if I find a good deal on wool socks I buy 1/2 doz. Those are for cooler months and in the summer the same brand of short white cotton socks or no socks at all. Good woolen socks are one of life's little pleasures. As far finding missing things goes always look first in the last place you will look. Everyone knows you always find something in the last place you look.
