I don't know what I ever did to earn her opprobrium, but she kept it up until her dying day.
Not once in her life did we ever have a bit of 'quality time' together, we never shared a bottle of wine, we never went for a coffee and a lovely chat, not even once. She was a horrible, spiteful, mean and nasty woman.
When she died, I did not, and have not since, shed one single tear at her passing.
I envy all of you who have/had lovely mothers.
She also said she loved a glass of 'shitter bandy' I was a full grown up when that penny dropped! ha ha.
Another strange one was if you asked her did she want something, she would reply 'D'ya want died years ago!' hmmmmmmm
My dad's favourite was "Let your meat stop your mouth."
get away with it now. But at least we can laugh at what they used to say.
Best wishes

"Stand still and come here"
No wonder a lot of my childhood was surrounded in confusion
one time we were on a family outing and my mother used to ask dad to take photos of her posing in front of flowers statues etc, with the old camera back in the 60s ... one day dad turned to me after taking lots of pictures of mum, one day I am going to put a film in this camera ha ha ..
