    A telephone conversation this morning:

    MAM: Hello?
    ME: Hi, Mam: it’s me!
    MAM: Oh, god.
    ME: Pardon?

    Yes, this is God speaking and I just wanted to remind you to send Catriona more money.

    Now why couldn’t I think of a snappy comeback like that?

    To be fair to my mother, it was more that they’re coming up tomorrow and bringing a load of furniture with them; apparently, they’d just wrapped it all up neatly and stacked it in the ute when the heavens opened.

    I think it was more of a “now, how do I tell my daughter that her sideboard may just have been exposed to a deluge?”

    Still pretty funny, though.
