Christmas present?

 

Lady M to K. What does S want for Christmas?

K. Nothing!

Lady M. She must want something; what about some College Gin?

K. She doesn't drink Gin!

Lady M. What Gin?

K. The College Gin you just suggested you bought for her!

Lady M. I didn't say Gin. I said Collagen.

K. No, she doesn't drink that either.

Lady M. What DOES she want then?

K. A Kindle.

Lady M. OK, I'll buy her a Kindle.

K. No you won't, you'd buy the wrong one!

Lady M. Why does she want one; does she read a lot of books?

K. Not at the moment.

Lady M. Why would she want a Kindle then?

K. So that she can read more.

Lady M. Why doesn't she?

K. Because she hasn't got a Kindle.

And so it continued. No-one any the wiser. Me laughing my head off, whilst mother and son sparred against each other to no avail.

Nobody knows what S wants for Christmas. However, I have already bought my prezzies for her. I can't tell you what they are in case she reads this (which she won't).

As usual we've suggested that we only give each other one present, and that it costs no more than £4.50p. But as usual that falls on decidedly deaf ears.

I'm really looking forward to Christmas. All the Turkey and Sprouts; I love it.
