Aw, so so sad, I'm heartbroken and shedding torrents of tears at the latest news ( NOT).
Evangeloon has informed me that his Mummy refuses most strenuously that she " Will not, and NEVER fund his latest desire to become an Ordained Baptist Preacher no matter if it be through a University in Australia or the U.S., since he IS too unreliable, undependable, lazy, idle and untrustworthy to be a Preacher."
Hmm, my question that I'd dearly like to put to her is, " If that be so, then WHY does she continue to fund/finance him any way?"
Actually, he would be a Great preacher IMO....credulous, demanding, pushy, loud, & dumber than a rock.......
About as thick as 2 short planks, sharp as a box of hammers, bright as 1 watt light bulb and as useful as a 20 cent watch from Woolworths.
@Triphid like i said......
@AnneWimsey It has just got even better.
He just, about v10 minutes ago, asked if I knew anything about cars, gearboxes in particular since his is stuck in reverse for some reason.
His BIG Brainwave idea is to remove the entire gearbox, turn it around, re-fit and then he'll have 1 forward gear at least.
No kidding, no joke, that IS his big brain-wave plan.
I didn't have the heart to set him right unfortunately since my lunch was simmering on the stove inside.
@Triphid OMG!!!!! Yeah, that'll work........
@AnneWimsey Yep, I guess he's never seen the underside of a motor vehicle before in his entire life.
If my increasingly defective memory is anything to go by, she is paying him to stay away from her. I admire her choice of words about her son.
Exactly! She won't live forever, what's he going to do then?
