Not exactly snappy - more planned in detail......... but HUGELY satisfying!
When I was a kid and did something clumsy or gourmless my Mum would always say "if brains was gunpowder you couldn't blow yer hat off!"
Now this rankled somewhat... so I plotted and planned, and came up with the perfect comeback and waited til she used the posionous phrase when there were a load of people round, and came back IMMEDIATELY with "yeah - and if you could think of something original to say then you'd be witty"
Cue stunned silence and a round of applause and a seething mother - but by Christ it was worth it!!!!
