Young Paddy invited his mother for dinner and during the course of the meal his mother couldn't help but notice how lovely Paddy's flat mate, Joanne, was.

About a week later, Joanne came to young Paddy saying, 'Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the frying pan, you don't suppose she took it do you??
'Well I doubt it, but I'll e-mail her just to be sure' said Paddy. So he sat down and wrote....
Dear Mother.
I’m not saying that you ‘did’ take the frying pan from my house. I’m not saying that you ‘did not’ take the frying pan, but the fact remains that it has been missing ever since you were here for dinner?
Love Paddy.

Dear Son.

Love Mam..
