My mother is such a brilliant woman for stories, she has such a flair for words that she would keep you captivated when telling a story about the most trivial things. She is 65 years old, but likes to think she is well up to speed with everything going on. She learnt to use email a few months ago and is delighted, her phone that she learnt to use last year never leaves her side! All these things are great, and she definately does impress me often.
The thing is, there are times i will walk into a room and she will tell me the most ridiculous things just so she can appear to be completely up to date!
1. I have developed a fierce soft spot for Barack Obama.
2. Rings me one day to inform me that
Jane Goody passed away.

3. Tells me one day that she loves 2Pac's "California Love" cause it has a happy feel to it.

So many more but will have to try to remember them!
Anyone have funny examples?
