Rent-a-Mum

We have a small holiday home in a very Spanish area and none of our neighbours speak any English. We had managed to get some olivewood delivered for our stove and my husband wanted to thank our neighbour who had ordered it for us. Unknowing to me, he had looked the word up for wood and as we passed our neighbour he muttered something to him. Me looked rather bewildered and when I asked what he had said in Spanish, he'd just thanked him for his Madre, instead of madera, wood. My poor hubby has never lived this down.
