Lost Sock Anyone…..?

Nigel is still spotting and “finding” lost things!  On Tuesday he noticed a dropped red and black stripy sock on the crossing just across the road from work, but because of it’s precarious position it would have been robustly foolhardy for someone as small as Nigel to bend over and pick it up, so that was it really as far as Nigel was concerned.
However, the following morning (Wednesday), Nigel noticed the aforementioned sock again …….. and someone had very kindly picked it up and put it on the wall for the loser to possibly reclaim.
Nigel is now eagerly anticipating his journey to school this morning, to see if the much mentioned sock is still there or not …… If only all our daily lives could be filled with such a simple yet tantalising thrill of expectation and mystery as Nigel’s ……… it must be a happy place to be ….. !!

It was a lovely "random act of kindness " for someone to rescue that sock, something we could probably all do each day. Lets hope it doesn't get windy & blow the sock away.

Love Marc's lost sock theory!.....the mysteries surrounding lost socks tantilize and leave us thinking there must be a whole lost sock world out there somewhere!....what fun!...dear Nigel's adventures bring mystery as well as anticipation and spice not only to his everyday life but to his fans too.....may he always have treasure hunting fun......

Washing machines are designed to lose one sock - it is a mystery how they go elsewhere from the machine.
Perhaps Tom the Scientist could investigate. I reckon it involves Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle.
