Hilariously funny! Well done on your deserved win.
Your story is exceptional in both elocution and storyline.
The characters draw you in so easily with your terrific dialogue.
And, that ending... what can I say ... brilliant!
Maxine.

snodlander, this is great. I must admit, while I was reading this I kinda wondered why this won the contest; then I came to the ending. You dropped me on my head and I love it. That was a true laugh-out-loud.

Congrats! pat

Great Story! And comical! There were a few misspellings, but they didn't take away from the story.

Question...neither Muriel nor the daughter(caller)could tell who they were talking to just by hearing the voice? Boy, I guess neither has talked to their real mother/daughter in a while(a very long while), hun? I know it's just a story and I really liked it. Good thought process for sure!

    Thanks. The spelling may be a US/UK thing. It looks fine on this side of the pond.

Humorous and engaging! Oddly enough, my own Mother and her Mother (my grandmother) had this exact thing happen to them. Congratulations on a most deserving win. :-) Blessings, Slush Pile
