Re: Mom/Mum
You don't want to know what I call mine 
Actually I've only called her by her christian name since I was about 20. Mum stuck in my throat. But it's a weird thing, she has never allowed the grand kids to call her gran or similar.
Little wonder I'm screwed up, is it

We're very picked on as we're not Southerners and we're not Northerners.... our accent is the closest remaining to old English and everyone takes the P!
