Was Christmas shopping with my mum a few years back.  She'd left some bulky purchases in the shop, to pick up later.  We'd finished shopping and were ready to go home.  Realising that we were now on the other side of town, I suggested Mum had a cup of coffee and waited with the other shopping while I quickly fetched the stuff.
As I was about to go to collect her purchases, I asked; "did you give the people in the shop your name?"
She said, slowly, loudly and clearly, as if explaining to someone slow on the uptake; "my. name. is. MRS. HORTON."
Er, yes, Mum, I know it is...
