The best telling off I have ever had since I left school was from a 104 year old lady .. she insisted, "were I to
carry my tool box properly, I wont have back trouble when I get old" .. possibly wise words, but there again, she wasn't fitting her new curtain poles and doing some plumbing.
Much respect for your Mother and her wise words ..
It just goes to show that the water doesn't always run off the ducks back !
This post should be featured .. your trousers are around your ankles and you haven't mentioned the government.
Much respect to your Mum !!!
