Tales of the mothership (part 7,564)

This is an accurate, unedited version of events:

Anna: I'm thinking of coming back to the shire next weekend.

Mothership: That's fine darling, but the house will be very cold and unwelcoming...no one will be here.

A: That's cool, I'm actually going out in Northampton on the Friday night.

MS: *Pause.* You know...Northampton is very dangerous, Anna.

A: Not it's not.

MS: It's very rough.

A: Mum, can I just point out that I'm nearly 25, I've been out in Northampton hundreds of times and...I LIVE IN LONDON.

MS: Anna, the streets of Damascus are safer than the streets of Northampton!

A: Really, Mum? Syria? That's what your comparing Northampton to?

MS: I just worry about you.
