Does anyone else have a son in law who, every time he visits, leaves a pair of socks!!

Son in law (like me) always wears black socks.
As they live in Worthing, when daughter, son in law and two gorgeous grand daughters visit, they stay overnight.
The first time they stayed, SiL left a pair of socks.
I washed them, and they got 'amalgamated' with my socks.
Last time he left a pair, I deliberately didn't wash them, but gave them to him on his next visit.
This time, I found a pair in the bathroom.
Gave them to him as he was leaving - and I've just found them under the sofa :-S

Maybe he steals your clean socks and leaves his in return??
