Thought I'd take a chance and jumpstart this thread!   Since I know folks are
busy, including winners.

Here's a new photo.     I'm wondering, what could she be saying???.....
Anxious to hear the answers...    let's give it till next Friday.    Go!

Brilliant idea.

Mummy: "Mikey, there are two more kilos of potatoes waiting to be peeled. On you go!"

Mummy: Don't look away, boys, I will deduce which one of you ate all the fresh mince pies!

Mummy: Why are you always arguing? Just once can you two behave like grown-ups?

Mummy: "And in case you forgot, Mikey: 'M' is for 'Mummy', not for 'Mycroft'."

"Mycroft, there was a big pudding in front of you a moment ago... where did it disappear?"

Sherlock: "... not listening, not listening.. not about me... blah blah blah...not listening..."

Mummy: "Mycroft Holmes, I spent weeks knitting that jumper for you, and you will wear it at dinner!"
Mycroft: *sigh*
Sherlock: *muffles snigger*

Mummy: "Mike, now you be nice to Mary in her condition. She's your brother's best friend's wife.
God knows I won't be counting on any grandchildren from you two boys."

Mummy: "Banning your brother into his old child's chair just because you want to appear taller than him is no way to behave, Mikey!"

Sherlock (thinking): 'Witless babble. I'm putting the two of you on semi-permanent mute.'

Mummy: "Smoking and lying to your Mummy, on Christmas Eve! What if Santa saw what you just did?!"

I love previous answers

Mummy: Boys, somebody ate my Christmas cake. If I ever find out who, I shall turn absolutely monstrous.

Mycroft (thinking): Calm down, Mycroft... You left no clues... She can't prove anything!

Sherlock (thinking): Was it Einstein who said something about time running faster or slower? I wish I haven't deleted it!
It was something like... if you run really fast, time goes slower. So if I just sit here and don't move...

Mummy: "Take it from me Mike, line dancing will definitely help keep the weight off, and you'll meet all sorts of new people."
