A man in Scotland calls his son in London the day before Christmas Eve and says I hate to ruin your day but I have to tell you that your mother and I are divorcing; forty-five years of misery is enough Dad what are you talking about? the son screams We can t stand the sight of each other any longer the father says We re sick of each other and I m sick of talking about this so you call your sister in Leeds and tell her Frantically the son calls his sister who explodes on the phone Like hell they re getting divorced she shouts I ll take care of this She calls Scotland immediately and screams at her father You are NOT getting divorced Don t do a single thing until I get there I m calling my brother back and we ll both be there tomorrow Until then don t do a thing DO YOU HEAR ME? and hangs up The old man hangs up his phone and turns to his wife Done They re coming for Christmas - and they re paying their own way
