Hi Everyone,
Now and again AD provides those moments when you wonder if it is a disease, or if its just an excuse to do all the things you wanted to , but never dared.
A wee while ago, the doorbell rang about half nine. I got up to answer, and was followed by my dad doing Alf Garnet ('Who the bloody hell is ringing the bloody doorbell at this bloody time?) the dog barking round my feet in circles, and mum going 'Oh who's that?' I unlock the mortice, slide back the bolts, take off the chain(dad is a bit of a security freak as well) and open the door on two earnest and rather scared looking Mormons.
'Hi, we're from the Church of Latter Day Saints,' begins one.
'Sorry, but I know about the Mormons and Joseph Smith,' I reply, and am just about to get ready to field his next question, when i see the other Mormon's eyes pop out of his head.
'Oh that's ok, we'll just go then,' he says, and they scuttle away.
Puzzled by their reaction , I turn round to see what they were looking at, and find that Mum has dropped her trousers at them (thank God she had tights on!).
Dad and I stood and howled for about three minutes andMum joined in, even though she didn't know what it was about.
This is a local shop for local people. There's nothing for the likes of you round here....
