I had to drop off a note the other day for the mother of one of The Daughter’s new friends. Leaving The Family waiting in the car, I walked up the path to their front door, and looked for the letterbox in the door to put the note through.
You can imagine my irrititation when I hear “Mum! Mum” and the horn starts beeping. You’d think they could be a little patient, right? The voices get louder and louder but I ignore them as I’m still looking all over for the damn letterbox.
I start thinking that maybe the post man leaves their letters on the doormat for them, but as there’s nothing there now, I’m really not sure about it. I decide to leave my note by the front door anyway. It’s only when I turn around, I see The Family Waving Wildly at the end of the driveway and pointing furiously at this:
