Researchers have discovered wearing socks and sandals is not the invention of middle-aged Brits abroad, but by ancient Romans over 2 000 years ago.
The discovery was made during a archaeological dig of newly found Roman ruins in North Yorkshire when a 2 000-year-old sandal was discovered. Tests showed a nail used in the construction of the footwear contained traces of fibres, suggesting they had been worn with socks.
I don't care who came up with the idea, it's still a non starter in any circumstances.
