What are you supposed to say when ...

[dizzojay]

... your Mother in Law phones you at 7.15 in the morning and her opening gambit is ...

'Did I leave my teeth on your kitchen worktop yesterday?'

O.o

Did she not think that we might have noticed a small detail like a stray set of dentures sitting in the middle of the place where we prepare our FOOD?
Did she not think that we might have put two and two together as she is currently the only person we know who has new dentures and is not getting on with them, plus the fact she comes round our house to do a bit of cleaning on Tuesdays.
And worst of all ...
If she thinks she left them there, she must - at some point - have REALLY taken her teeth out and put them on our kitchen worktop.

Typing in rubber gloves is hard *reaches for the bleach again*

In the tradition of the British stiff upper lip, I'm sitting here trying not to howl with laughter. The whole conversation is just amazing, and now I'm imaging you trying to hunt down a set of rogue dentures.

I think it's the dawning horror that at some point you could've used your mum-in-law's teeth to crimp pastry, that's the stuff of nightmares1

The mind truly does boggle.
Not to mention the teeth ...
