A few years back my kid had been out in S Korea teaching for a year, and his mum finally planned a trip out there. Anything I can bring you? she asked. Milk chocolate Hob Nobs please mum.
This went on for days before the flight, him checking she had them, yes they’re in the fridge, four packets, yes I won’t forget, yes they’re in my bag, all packed, I’m not an eejit, stop worrying.
Two days and 5,000 miles later she presented him with four packets of plain chocolate Digestives, which he could buy in a store in Geoje. He later described it as “the worst day of my life”.
