Mothers and text messaging.

I just got an SMS from my mum which reads:
I forgot to tell
you that I got 
your knickers 3
packs for the
price of 2. Xx


Whilst it's not up to [livejournal.com profile] adjectivemarcus' mum's illustrious standards, it's getting there.

My mum (whom I'd explicitly told not to send me any more 'female' underwear) was more subtle: she sent me a parcel with 6 pairs of knickers shamefully hidden in gift wrapping paper and a note saying 'couldn't get them all in white so I though yellow would be okay.' *shudder*

Yuck! I had at least actually asked my mum to buy me knickers, as she has a discount card for BHS. And she did buy the right ones. It was just the text message that disturbed me, rather than the underpants themselves :)
