Excuse the odd question. Probabl;y sounds mad.

I just rang my mum and she said she was 'making something' but would not tell me what 'in case it does not work'.

later in the conversation I could hear the sound of a small to medium dog in the background. I asked her about it and she said it was a rasp. (as in a type of hand tool?)

She said my father is not there, it is her.

Help me please. This is not good is it.

Well we have agreed no presents this year, but she doesn't feel comfortable with that.

She is trying to get round it by making me something, I think.

with a rasp.

See you using the words 'your mother' and DIY' in the same sentence without wincing visibly just shows that you do not understand

humptynumpty · 22/12/2009 16:49

Sorry if inappropriate but I thought you caught her and your dad at a "busy" time and she was gasping for breath

HugeBaublesWhatDidISayRoy · 22/12/2009 16:49

maybe she was adding another notch to the bedpost when you rang?

humptynumpty · 22/12/2009 18:20

Just misread the website - thought it said each one was individually tested. Mind was boggling when I realised that it said listed.

Very relieved.
