McDull: Me & My Mum Page #2

---

Huh...?

And who taught you to de-all-those-tect?

It's...

Detective

Do you really speak many languages?

Just a few words...

Where did you learn it?

I speak English too.

Me too.

And your brain is like a camera

that captures everything?

And how come you can

cook so well, Detective?

People say you're a great

plumber too, is it true?

Well, all this, I have to thank my mom.

Mrs. Mak?

I was born in a little

town with a population below 20,000.

It was a popular port

among fishermen living in villages nearby.

They came to shop, and bank.

My mom, she was no star...

That was before the time of internet.

Instead, we had community TV stations

to relate the latest happening.

Mom was the producer of one such station

cum writer, hostess and actress.

With three staff

they'd always welcome a hand

when I was on holiday.

"Willow at the river

accompanies the two of us"

"Birds in pairs sing a love-filled hint"

"My beating heart makes the river ripple"

"Alas, you pay no attention"

"Willow at the river

accompanies the two of us"

"Our shoulders rub a love-filled hint"

"My eyes beam a tender poem"

"Alas, you don't seem to notice"

"Sunny day, drizzling day"

"Willow keeps us company

in the springtime breeze"

"Love grows, love tangles"

Traffic on the South Road is smooth

Though beware that

fallen crabs are scurrying on Sea King Road

Next is market news

Pot King

Renowned for their pig liver

and meatball

They are offering panfried

duck intestines tonight.

You'd be a fool to miss it!

Next is weather report...

Take the laundry in! It's raining!

It's Household Genie!

Weather changes in an

instant, people don't.

An advice from the Household Genie

Always bring a hanger

and with a twist, and more twist...

Add a plastic bag, wear it like this...

Now who's afraid of rain?

Even better, a hanger is

also useful for plumbage

and massage

But I'll save that till we meet again!

"Willow keeps us company

in the springtime breeze."

"Love grows, love tangle"

Mom was brilliant, but as for me...

A bit to the left, left...

Not to the right...

Pray tell, which one is your left hand?

The one you wear your watch.

Where are you going?

To get my watch.

"I can only hope one day you will know..."

"How much I love you dear."

Next is special news

Due to popular demand

squid at Pot King is sold out today

Take note that squid is

sold out at Pot King.

Cut

Thank you, Chief.

Mom, I want chicken.

It's all on the menu, see what you want.

I want... chicken and chicken.

What chicken and chicken?

Here, you see, chicken and chicken.

You bloody idiot!

You can't have two dishes of chicken.

I can't? But chicken and chicken look good.
