What on earth has brought this on, said my mother?
Well the other day she came into my shop asking for the usual discount and mentioned that she had tickets for the wimbledon Tennis final but couldn’t go.
About 30 years back, I was speaking with my mother.

What do you mean son?
Do you know what she said mum?
“Mum why is my sister such a bitch!”
My mother said to me “ Why didn’t you speak to me about this before”
What! how could you do that?

Oh I said, can my wife have them she would give her right arm to see a Wimbledon tennis final?
Well she is so snotty, O.K. she may have married a bit of money, I don’t know but she feels she is above everybody else.
Well son “ I think I might have got you some tickets”
True - how I loved my mum!
She said, “Oh no I can’t give you our tickets, if we can’t go, well we don’t go - it is just not done to give away final tickets.”
What's a memory from your childhood that shaped who you are today?
So I said to my sister “ You mean to say that that you leave two empty seats rather than give them to your brother” I replied in astonishment. - “Well yes thats how it works in our circle!” responded my sister.
