I have lost a lot of socks recently. My brother also moved out a few weeks ago. One suspects a link...

I think we have the next Tefal right here guys....

If you don't wash socks enough they gain their own conciousness and tend to wonder off...

Also you lose pairs? I always lose single ones, pain in the behind.

Yes this is a pain, along with trying to find socks for size 13. The biggest pain in life is small socks.

Have you checked the washing basket

That's where my wife "finds" my missing socks. Some of them never make it to the wash.

Mine too, usually from me flinging them and they miss and land behind

I'm almost certain washing machines eat a sock now and then. i must loose a handful every year where they've gone in in pairs, but come out with one missing.

Did you think they lived off washing powder alone?!?

Have you checked the rubber door seal? They might be living in there...

They have formed a small commune under the washing machine...but dont look! they may bite.

Somehow I always manage to lose one of the socks out of a pair. I have no idea where they go, have done the usual check behind washing machine/tumble dryer, but they literally disappear into thin air
