My phone rings about 10 mins ago. Mrs Greedo answers and has a brief chat looks at the phone a bit confused, passes me the phone and say's "it's your Mum. She sounds a bit hyper"
the conversation then goes.
"Hello"
"hi it's Mum"
"Hi Mum"
"listen, your aunt Anne is round and your Dad's watching that debate nonsense and we're on the computer. Anne is showing me google street view, it's brilliant. We've looked up your house. Why don't you go outside and give us a wave"
Now you might think oh how sweet. Well if I tell you that on google street and you see our house, it is brilliant sunshine, there is blossom and leaves and flowers on the trees. At the moment the trees are as bald as coots, (and my Mum was round at the weekend and was herself commenting on how she always looks forward to coming round in the summer as the Magnolia tree we have is gorgeous) but the best bit is
it's bloody nearly pitch black outside at the moment
