My mum causes my most embarassing moment and I'm not present.
When I was little (!) I had some pipes relaid so I wouldn't end up pissing sideways. This also meant a bit of cosmetic alteration. Fast forward 30 years and a friend has taken her small child to show my mother. In amongst the child health conversation my mum says "As you know JVZ is circumcised." She didn't up to that point and found it highly amusing when she told me. Suppose I should be grateful I wasn't there or I'd probably have been told to drop my trousers for her to have a look.
A few years later another friend is in the diary to visit mum, this time with me there. Before she arrives I ask for a certain subject lost to memory not to be mentioned. "I'd never say anything to embarass you". she said. When reminded of what she had said on a previous occasion she said "I thought you would have told her." When??
