My mother (she died over sixteen years ago) was always keen to keep up with modern thoughts, words etc, but didn't always get it right. She began to call people of who she disapproved w*****s, so much so that I had to try to tell her that it was a rude word. She looked puzzled and then said "But what exactly is a w****r, Ariadne?"
So then I had to explain it all to my rather prudish and very innocent mother, who had obviously never heard of masturbation, never mind the w word. She thought it was disgusting and thanked goodness my father wasn't "That sort of man."
Oh, mum!
apple trees not flowering this year. Anyone else?

Passports not in the drawer I always keep them in. Turning the place upside down.
