Scholl flight socks
With all of the hype about these I am always amazed when i get onto an aeroplane that i seem to be about the only one wearing them. I know this because I see people in their shorts, although it's more tricky to decide on business flights when people are suited and booted.
WHAT DO THEY DO?
When on an aeroplane, the long periods of inactivity, combined with often cramped conditions and dehydration can cause circulatory problems including Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT). DVT risks increase as you get older, during pregnancyand with a previous history of blood clots, but it is recommended that everyone wears the socks unless medically advised against it.
These socks are apparently medically proven to help prevent DVT by helping to improve the flow of blood and ensure correct circulation. They will also help reduce ...
Advantages: Help prevent DVT Disadvantages: Cost £12
Scholl flight socks are a good purchase if you are flying, or indeed if you are going to be travelling in a car for any length of time.

Advantages: Colourful pictures, story is in rhyme Disadvantages: Some of the tongue twisters are hard to say!
A few weeks ago my nephews and niece came to sleep at my house, my youngest nephew wanted me to read a story before he went to bed and Fox in Socks by Dr Seuss was the one he picked. I gave him a choice of Dr Seuss books but he chose this one, as he'd never heard it before.
Dr Seuss (pseudonym of Theodor Seuss Geisel) was born on 2nd March 1904 and died on 24th September 1991. During his lifetime he wrote nearly 50 children's books. He was probably most famous for The Cat in the Hat, which has also been made into a film.
The whole book is written in rhyme which I think makes it more enjoyable for the children listening. The general story line is Mr Fox is trying to get Mr Knox to lots of different tongue twisters but poor Mr Knox just cannot get his tongue around them (I don't blame him - I found some of them pretty difficult ...
