Another of my Mum's Mrs Bucket moments yesterday:
For the 20th time on this visit alone
Mum: So, where do all your children live?
Me: Well, DS1 lives in a flat in town, DS2 lives in our village, DD1 lives in Derby, DD.........
Mum: Where in Derby does she live?
Me: *** Street.
Mum: Oh!
Me: What do you mean 'Oh'
Mum: A Street (along the same lines as 'A handbag!!')
It set me wondering whether addresses count nowadays? I've said before that we live on what was called 'Catsick Lane' so I don't have leg to stand on
Mum would be very impressed if anyone lived in a Close or on a Crescent - do you judge people by their addresses?
