“Have you noticed when you sort your socks after pulling them out of the dryer that one or two are missing? You look everywhere for them – even though the trip from hamper to washing machine is a matter of steps – but their disappearing act is foolproof. Where can they be? The lone sock is left on its own and prudently put into a drawer for safe keeping until its partner is found  – if ever. Days, maybe weeks later, the truant sock...

“Your partner wants to go to Norway; you want to go to the Caribbean. You can’t understand why they wouldn’t want to soak up the sun on a white sandy beach.
