Oh. My. Golly. Gosh.

Mum got hit in the face with a basketball today. She was on an escalator at the shops and then suddenly, wham! smack in the face

Mum's not the toughest of people these days, but she wasn't hurt in any lasting way. She's ok now.

Anyway, the boys that had been playing with the ball laughed when it hit her and didn't apologize, so:

drum roll please

. . . .

When they asked for their ball back, mum scooped it up, tucked it under her arm and said:

"no, you bloody well can't, and if you keep this up, I'll call the cops."

Now, sitting in our kitchen, is a basketball!

*dies*

They must have been real brats, to not apologize. I can't fathom folks like that.

Yeah, she's alright. It was one of those things where it was more shock than hurt, know what I mean?

Thanks, I'm happy to be back!:):)

That's AMAZING. Your mum's reaction, not the boys. What little jerks.
They deserved worse than just losing their ball.

I know! She's achieved hero status around here at the moment. *g*

What brats, to not apologize! Especially since it was her face! I just don't understand people like that.

She's my hero too!;) I couldn't believe it - what jerks the boys must have been, eh?

It was one of those things that was more shock, than pain, know what I mean? Not to say it didn't hurt like hell, of course, but she's ok now, thank goodness!

You figure the boys must have realized they were in the wrong a bit though, since their basketball is now on your table!!

Your ma is made of awesome. Am very glad she's ok

I'd like to hit those nice boys in the face with a cricket ball.

Wow! Good for her. Plus, she has more restraint than me. I probably would have chucked it back AT their heads.
