My then boyf, the current Mr Quar, kept in touch with his ex
and one day she gave him some Robbie Williams tickets, having chucked out her cheating husband shortly before they were due to see him.

This was back when Robbie was at his peak and my youngest daughter was 15.

So Boyf and I told her she could take whoever she wanted and we'd drive them up there and back, all for free.

Amazingly, Daughter didn't choose her bezzy mate to take. She picked a nice quiet girl she knew, Kim, who was obsessed with Robbie - did her GCSE art project on him, no less.

Although they weren't close she chose her because she knew Kim's ambition was to see Robbie sing live.

I arranged it with Kim's mum and then let Daughter give Kim the news, and all squealing hell broke loose!

So that's how Kim came to see Robbie at two days' notice, at no cost, with someone whom until then she hardly knew.

I felt proud of Daughter. Yes, you, little b3tan!

That's damn lovely.
Must've been some good parenting to lead to something so kind.

(Sorry my mind went blank and I couldn't think of a better or more majestic word than kind)

Even if Robbie is a cunt, that's still fucking lovely of your daughter.
