THE MYSTERIOUS CASE OF THE MISSING SOCK

 Four went into the washing machine, but only 3 came out.

I looked into the washing machine, span the drum around a few times, and almost climbed in. But alas, the missing sock was still missing.

Where was that missing sock? 

I retraced my steps from before starting the wash, and from after the wash to putting the washed items out to dry.

But still no missing sock!

And then a flash of inspiration!!

Perhaps the sock had been 'eaten' by another item in the same wash?

And yep! The missing sock had been 'eaten' by a long sleeved shirt, and was somehow half way up the right sleeve. How the F did it get there?

God be praised!, I exclaimed.

The missing sock is now re-united with the other items in the same wash, and is now happily drying with the other 3 socks.
