My Mother...
This is what makes me slightly unhinged...this is the kind of gene pool I come from...
In a phone conversation to my Mother the other day...
Mum: Your Dad's not really using his mobile phone much these days..
Me: Oh right, why's that? Has he given up on technology again? [raises eyebrows sarcastically]
Mum: Oh no, no, nothing like that this time.
Me: What then? Is it broken?
Mum: Oh no, now he's got one of those new fangled things. You know- the square flat things that you use like a phone and a computer thingy.
Me: Eh?
Mum: You know...it's black and square...I know!- It's one of those new Raspberry things.
Me: Don't you mean Blackberry, Mum?....
Mum: No, it's definately raspberry..I'm sure it is.
Me: No Mum [snorts with laughter] it's definately a Blackberry.
Mum: Eeeee... I've told all the Mums at school that my husband's got a Raspberry! No wonder they were all looking at me funny.
Me: Mum...are you sure we are related?
