    Everyone in Leicester is / was / should have been in the hosiery trade. I’ll be meeting a dozen or so folk on Monday and Tuesday who are now

    Coincidentally I ran tonight in a pair of black, wool PB socks. Brilliant they are too

    I often wear black wool socks from Running Bear, cracking value at 3 pairs for £10. Once bought a pair of their fell shoes and they threw-in a pair of their wool socks, gratis.
    I was a bit of an oddball until I was abducted by aliens; but I'm perfectly OK now!

    I think "was" is the correct tense in that sentence.
