Sock puzzles

Where do children's socks go to? We have one tidy sitting room with very little in it, and one sitting room that looks like a bomb has hit which has George's toys in it.

This evening George was watching tv in the tidiest room on his own. He wandered in to see me in the messy room, with his feet already bare, complaining that his feet were cold. I have just been to look for his socks, and can only find one.

Two weeks ago we lost a pair of George's socks in the same room. I still haven't found them. Maybe George is right and there really is a sock monster...
