Sitting in the car with my dad recently, we giggled together conspiratorially, taking it in turns blasting the horn. We were ready to leave to go out for lunch, but my mum was still inside getting ready.
'You two never change,' Mum laughed as she eventually hurried out of the house to join us. Dad and I are always 10 minutes early for everything, while Mum has always been more relaxed. Whenever we were going anywhere growing up, Dad and I would sit in the car beeping the horn until Mum and my younger sister bustled out of the house, shaking their heads in frustration. Their reactions made us laugh more.
