Mum nearly dropped Libby when I said, “Do you want me to get anything for you while I am in town this afternoon?”

She said, “Sorry, love, I thought for a moment you offered to do something for me. What did you really say?”

Even though I was irritated by her I kept a lovely smile on my face. “Oh Mutti…as if I never do anything for you!”

She said suspiciously, “Why are you smiling like that? What have you got on that is mine? If you have borrowed my gold necklace I’ll go mad.”

I snapped then. “Look, what is the matter with you? How can I ever be a nice person if you are so suspicious all the time? What are you, a mother or a police dog? Do you want to do a body search before I go out? Honestly!!!”

Then I remembered my Operation Elastic Band just in the knickers of time. I said nicely, “I just thought you might want me to bring something back for you. I know how busy you are, that’s all.”

In the end I think I convinced her, which is a bit of a drag as now I’ve got to lumber home with waterproof panties for Libbs. Hey ho. What sacrifices I make for the SG. I’ve almost forgotten what he looks like.
