Quick, easy, comforting and delicious suppers
CONSULTANT: And their ages are?
SUZANNE: Both early twenties.
CONSULTANT: So, you’re still at the same address, two children – and did you push them out yourself?
SUZANNE: No, they are still both at home, but I hope they move out and get a flat eventually.
CONSULTANT [slowly looking up with quizzical look on his face]: No, I mean did you push them out yourself at birth?
SUZANNE [with very stupid look on her face]: Oh, I’m sorry. No – one forceps and one natural.
Consultant slowly looks down and carries on writing on his form, presumably adding, ‘Forget the womb – check the head!’.
