” Why is there a book about ‘the joys of bisexual love’ in with these bibles?” I asked my mum, whilst my sister chortled!
Looking through a box of long-forgotten books belonging to my 82-year-old mother, I found one that seemed a little out-of-place!
I would love to know how that got there!

I would love to know the answer

Me too, she was just as shocked as we were when I took it out of the box – not unless she is a good actress! 🙂

You know, with my mother anyway, if there are words she isn’t familiar with (i.e. bisexual which wasn’t a common word/topic in their day) she may actually have no idea what that book was/is about when she picked it up. Am sure she figured it out if she ever opened it and if she did open it and figure it out, I’m sure my mother would be much too embarrassed to ever get rid of it and chance someone seeing her with something like that. Just saying…..we might be able to give the benefit of the doubt here….. 🙂

I agree, I would have loved to have seen her face when she opened it! I think that she too might have been a bit too embarrassed to get rid of it. 🙂

Hello, and thanks for stopping by. I am Judy, in my (very) early fifties and decided that life definitely gets more interesting as it goes on! I am a wife and a mum and have just finished University as a Registered Nurse, after having worked as an Associate Practitioner in the NHS. I am also a poet and the author of my debut book, 'Rhymes of the Times.' I love to laugh, and I love rhyming words too, so I joined the two together, and my book was born. I am currently working on another book in the series also. I am a prolific blogger and enjoy writing funny stories, anecdotes, and anything really that takes my fancy.
