HALL OF BAD DECISIONSFILE No. 4440-Q

Mum Came Too

My mum was dropping me at the restaurant because my car was in the garage. She saw my date through the window, decided he “looked nice”, and came in to “just say hello”. She stayed for the starters. And the mains. She showed him my graduation photos and a video of me as a sheep in a 1998 nativity play. She asked about his pension. He said he’d had a lovely evening “with you both”. He’s still in touch. With her.

Your mum got a second date. You got a lift home.
