I hope the mother got sent packing with a flea in her ear for barging in on the house like that. What a cheek!
Afraid not. It turns out that the owner of the house is an elderly lady who is looking for a maid, so Mum offers to look after her house in return for use of the pool – leaving her own house to look after itself.
Even a broken leg doesn’t stop her interfering with Mandy’s swimming, but she eventually sees sense after riding her wheelchair into the water during a race and nearly drowning.
Thank you for the information, Goof. Some people sure are overzealous, aren’t they?
