Pluggers by Rick McKee for July 06, 2024

Grip Sox are the best socks. – That’s what they’re know here in Australia, don’t know what they’re called in other countries.

Then my late Wife definitely was a Plugger!

Eh? Me never even see anytheeng like this.

Nice for the house but still need shoes outside ;-)

Most Pluggers are too old to do the ‘Risky Business’ floor-slide, anyway.

I hate those things. Bad memories.

I’m 68 and I’ve got my first pair recently after have knee replacement surgery a month ago.

No free grippy socks for me. I haven’t been in a hospital (for myself) since I got my tonsils out in 1957.

LOL… forgot about those.

They are too large for me.

I’ve only had one hospital stay so far, but I like them so much I bought several pairs to use for my dance exercises.

Hospitals used to let you go barefoot but cracks in dry skin can allow some nasty cross-infections. So now we have the disposable socks. By the way, throw them out.

I don’t. Thank God.

My husband got lots of them but I couldn’t let him wear them. His feet were so bad from diabetes that they would create sores on his feet that would get infected. It was quite a battle we had with the hospital to keep them off.
