They're getting worse...
TV IS BETTER THAN MY MUM
The man in the tight suit
said it would rain in the afternoon.
It rained.
I wonder if my Mum ate enough.
Her dresses sometimes
seemed to hang off her bones.
My Dad had his head in the clouds
a lot of the time.
Seven pounds a week
sounded a lot in those days
but we didn’t have a phone till 1958.
We used to let other people’s cars
live in our garage.
My Mum said You’re just
like your father. You’ll never amount
to anything. But I think
she was cross at the time.
Even the Radio Times
sometimes gets it wrong.
I have a car. But not a garage.
My car got wet.
