I've lost my mind xD...

I already bought my socks and I'm pretty skint... but everytime I see mens socks now I have to go take a look

I have my socks!
They're lovely and I can't wait to send them

Same here, Tinks, waiting is a bit not good.
But I still need some wrapping paper...

**Posted by Tinks** March 7, 2014 1:35 pm

Luckily I've already got some blue stripy paper, so I'm all set to go!
Just got to think what to write on my note

How can you recover from "Coriolanus"? Go shopping the other day.

The paper I want to wrap the socks in

A card that Benedict have an impression where I live

And something to show Benedict how the people are in my area

Well, I am prepared. The only thing I still don't know is... what to write in my message ...

I still haven't got my socks...

Don't be sad, you still have time, rebecca. And you don't have send them that early. It's ok.

I've got my first pair!

**Posted by SolarSystem** March 8, 2014 4:10 pm

Now that's what I call a crazy mix of pattern!

Loving these!!

**Posted by This Is The Phantom Lady** March 9, 2014 1:22 pm

Awesome socks @Rebecca! Mine seem so boring...

**Posted by clareiow** March 9, 2014 1:25 pm

So do mine Phantom - I'm consoled by the fact mine are ethical ones made in factories powered by wind farms and using fair trade cotton!! Hoping he'll appreciate that!

I have pink spotty paper already but I just need a card to go with it now....and then there's my message. Only got a few more weeks to think about it, eek!

**Posted by This Is The Phantom Lady** March 9, 2014 2:05 pm

I'm wrapping mine in black paper with white, organge and green stripes...

It's funny actually... all the socks I look at here are so boring... even womens socks... Well unless I go to punk shops like I usually do.

**Posted by clareiow** March 9, 2014 2:16 pm

Get him punk socks then lol!

**Posted by clareiow** March 9, 2014 4:21 pm

I've decided I'm making my card...I'm gonna use my pencils and make something with meaning.

I hope he likes it.

**Posted by This Is The Phantom Lady** March 9, 2014 4:27 pm

Awh that sounds amazing Clare! I am sure it is going to mean a lot to him!

**Posted by clareiow** March 9, 2014 4:34 pm

I'll post a pic when I've done it

**Posted by This Is The Phantom Lady** March 9, 2014 4:36 pm

Yay! I can't wait to see that!

I might use the card from this picture... It's awfully boring though!

**Posted by clareiow** March 9, 2014 5:26 pm

Put your watercolour stamp on it? X

**Posted by rebeccaholmes** March 9, 2014 5:31 pm

Ah, I'm so nervous about writing the letter, I don't know what to put without sounding like an obsessed freak?
