| Mum helped pick out the toy shopping trundler complete with imitation foods. |
| But my Mum, probably because of her mother's treatment of her, was very, very frightened of our getting above ourselves. |
| We spent a quiet time eating and drinking and chatting until, around 4pm, we drove Mum home. |
| Mum told me his surname, and I looked him up in the book, and called him, but his mum told me he was out so I left a message. |
| Efficency and purpose radiated from her barely five-foot frame as she barked at Mum to open the boot. |
| But I was still jet-lagged from visiting 99-year-old Mum in the U.K., so I luckily postponed my visit. |
