The Lesbian The Gay and The Dead Mum
Our mum died suddenly, and we remember her with love and laughter as we read the letters she wrote to us at university. Touching, poignant, but above all funny. You will laugh, you might cry and you'll definitely enjoy the ride as this gay brother (@fitxander) and lesbian sister (@Claire_Training) take you back to the late 1990s and re-live the fateful years that led to them coming out to each other at University.
The Lesbian The Gay and The Dead Mum
Letter 7 - 4th November 1999
Xander books a venue for their Edinburgh stand-up, then Claire pulls out because she can’t bare to be away from her kids for more than 2 seconds at a time. Xander immediately replaces her with a ventriloquist dummy and it turns out the dummy is more interesting, valuable and funny than Claire has ever been.
In 1999 Mum tells us some hot hot gossip, Claire turns up some trousers with sticky tape and Dad drops a slice of potato into his gravy.
Who knew the 1990s were so eventful right?
