Hi guys

I’ve got my Mom here with me on Christmas Eve. Her name is Iris and you may recall that I’ve mentioned her a time or seven. She’s a real sweetie and we’ve never had a falling out apart from a brief spat when she abruptly stopped my pocket money at the age of 45. Even though that Sixpence would have come in handy, my Anger Management Counsellor says I’ve moved on further than expected so I won’t dwell on it too much even though I’d come to depend on it.

I’ve been telling her about the internet (or the telly or video as she calls it) but she doesn’t really understand that you can communicate with people all over the world by typing what you want to say. I’ve told her there are some really wonderful people in this forum. I know some are away for the holiday and I’ve even heard rumours that they have such a thing as a real life !, but for those of you still here, anywhere in the world, my Mom would like to hear from you and she can say hello. I suppose it’s a kind of Ask MamaKram Almost Anything thread.

She always used to get those big books that would have put a strain on the heart of Charles Atlas from the library, you know, the ones with big print . So as she’s 73½, I’m going to be using a larger style than usual. I will be doing the typing but it will be straight from the horses mouth.

Hi mom! You're son's definitely an accomplishment you can be proud of. Thank you for him.

She says she thinks I'm great too. She wants me to show you one of her drawings so I'll have to have a look for it

Hi, MamaKram! Good wishes from sunny Southern California, too! We're rather fond of your son....but that doesn't make us bad people!

She says "Thank You" I've told her you are a personal friend of The Osmonds

She thought that was lovely Bez and says the same to you

Do you want to be my Agent ?:D

"She asked if it was the Lulu who had a hit with Boom-Bang-A-Bang"

She just told me that she used to work for some rabbits. Fortunately, this was quickly corrected to working for some people who HAD some rabbits. She said she'd like to cuddle your rabbits and she wouldn't be scared (or frightened) :wah:

...........What a lovely mother you have, Unc'!

I'll put it in my diary for February 30th

So, MamaKram....since we're all friends now--how about telling us some of the naughty things your dear son did as a lad?

She says she'll have to do you a drawing and wish you Merry Christmas

She's already been in it and I had to get her out of it with a crowbar. She says she'd like one but hasn't got enough room:wah:

Was it YOU who bailed him out of the slammer after that embarassing incident with the three sheep, the raincoat and the stripper?

It wasn't?

Oops.

Kram as we say in the US make room..:wah: She well have many, many years of comfort in her own "Lazy Boy"... it's great for the circulation to have your legs up during a nap..

[QUOTE]She's already been in it and I had to get her out of it with a crowbar. She says she'd like one but hasn't got enough room[/QUOTE]

(PSSST! MamaK! On second thought....let UncleK have a little nap in his chair and YOU get back online with us! ) :sneaky:

I'm reminded by her of a weeing competition I had with my cousin. She won because she had a whole Fairy Liquid bottle full of water.

I'm surprised my Mom can remember back 4 years

Here's a pic of her in her new glasses

She doesn't know about that. You know what they say. "What happens in Tamworth stays in Tamworth";)

She asked me how she'd speak to you:p

(Ummmm...UnK....with those glasses on, I suspect your Mum can read what you just wrote all the way from London!) :wah:

Never mind, though....your secret is safe with me!

Got any wine? :sneaky: Show Mum how to use the keyboard, dear, whilst you're cooking/napping.....

She's telling me about the lads at school who played football with her buns because the fat she needed had been rationed. If I had a pound for every time I'd heard this story, I'd have £748

Like her new hairdo?

Last time she had any wine, she complained of seeing dots before her eyes

It might be best I left until she goes to bed.

It's OK Nomad, she likes the wild hairdo on your sig pic:wah:

Hi MamaKram, is he looking after you well this evening?

Tell me Mamakram, have you got any tips for raising a well balanced, charming delightful man? :-2

She says Show your love. help as much as you can, don't hesitate to give anything you've got

Blimey...it's almost poetic :wah:

She says I'm looking after her very well...oh ok......I put the "very" in

Hiya Iris, welcome to FG,

You have a very lovely son:-4 (despite being a Villa nut!)

Oh alright, I'll ask.



When you were giving birth, did the doctor tell your husband "Your Iris is dialated"? I'll bet they had a good laugh at that.

Mama Kram

I don't know about you, but I enjoy watching paint dry. I imagine that the wet paint is a big freshwater lake that is the only source of water for some tiny cities by the lake. As the lake gets drier, the population gets more desperate, and sometimes there are water riots. Once there was a big fire and everyone died.

Do you ever watch paint dry ?

She says Same to you with brass knobs on and a happy new year.

Ok Ok...the brass knobs bit was my idea........seemed mildly amusing at the time:o Told her your husband was named Perky :wah:

UncleK, Dear....are you absolutely CERTAIN you've not been at the wine? :wah:

(Brass knobs, perky.....woooo hoooo)

+++++++++++ And then, there's Accountable....."irises dilated" indeed! TRY TO BEHAVE!

She wants me to wish you a happy new year and Christmas ( but not necessarily in that order)....oh hold on....news just coming in....Tell them I think you're great as well, she's saying.....I'll keep you updated as this story develops

She's sitting in my recliner drawing now. Hey Abs, she's an Aston Villa nut as well...........well, if you count going to one game (Villa 6 - Ipswich 1) as dedicated :wah:
