Title: Socks Post by: kerry red on Sunday, July 15, 2012, 20:32:50 I do a lot of walking on a daily basis and my bleeding socks are forever getting holes in the heel.
Is there such a thing as a hard-wearing sock? Title: Re: Socks Post by: Swindon Please Win on Sunday, July 15, 2012, 20:45:09 http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Hard+Wearing+Socks

Not used them myself mind. Title: Re: Socks Post by: Reg Smeeton on Monday, July 16, 2012, 09:53:23 My socks always go in the toes...my solution have about 40 pairs, all of the same colour (black) and it's usually possible to find a few without.
This is particularly annoying when it comes to proper nice walking socks, the thermal sort and quite expensive, because they too go after a few walks as well. Never have a problem with heels though. Title: Re: Socks Post by: 4D on Monday, July 16, 2012, 09:58:16 Cut your nails Reg?
Title: Re: Socks Post by: kerry red on Monday, July 16, 2012, 10:00:55 It probably doesn't help that when I walk the greyhounds I am forever in wellies.
I chalk up about 4-5 miles daily Title: Re: Socks Post by: Reg Smeeton on Monday, July 16, 2012, 10:09:25 Cut your nails Reg? I do frequently....think though it may be because I have strong nails, a result of having been brought up in the 1950's age of daily free school milk. A post war public health move, introduced to counter the prevalence of rickets...and I'm not talking Michael or Rohan. Title: Re: Socks Post by: 4D on Monday, July 16, 2012, 11:06:53 I remember free school milk, the mini bottles, usually warm and with beak marks in the foil top. :pint:

Do you wear with Sandals Reg!? Title: Re: Socks Post by: 4D on Monday, July 16, 2012, 11:27:32 I do a lot of walking on a daily basis and my bleeding socks are forever getting holes in the heel. Have you done the ring of Kerry? Title: Re: Socks Post by: Reg Smeeton on Monday, July 16, 2012, 11:31:50 Do you wear with Sandals Reg!? Of course, de rigeur for a middle aged fashionista such as myself...I favour this sort of look.

Magnificent. It truly is a fantastic place to live - albeit hideously expensive. I'll be sorry to leave Title: Re: Socks Post by: kerry red on Monday, July 16, 2012, 11:34:41 Of course, de rigeur for a middle aged fashionista such as myself...I favour this sort of look.

I find putting one of these on each of your big toes does the trick....saves a fortune in socks. Also for young walkers or sock holers it is invaluable practise for later on in life.

Recall John Francome being asked on radio about a then, forthcoming derby and saying he was a bit torn because Ricketts who was playing for the scum was his nephew. |
