My son asked me to buy him some Nike socks in Bali, he specifically wanted black ones with white ticks. So, going through the markets (I think it was the Kuta Art markets), I saw a plastic 'tube' of black socks with a white tick. The guy assured me there were 6 pairs, all good. I asked if I could open the tube and have a look so he pulled out a pair from under the counter and yeah, there they were, looking good. So I take the tube home, give it to my son and he glares back at me. Yep, thanks, nice black socks but where is the Nike tick? What? Yes, the tick was on the outside of the plastic tube but seemed to have been forgotten on the socks! He still pulls the mickey out of me about that, the Black Nike Clayton socks!
