In The Occupied Territory

Mother

It's my Mother's birthday today. She is 86.
I called her last week and told her I'd be round today at lunchtime.
She wasn't in.
I called to see where she was.
She said she was in Amerine and she forgot I was coming round.
I went to the restaurant.
She wasn't there.
She was in Amore.
A different place altogether.

So here she is having lunch with one of the girls from the office she works in.
Happy Birthday to her.
