My younger brother phoned me up....

And said:

"Our prodigal brother has sold the car my dad gave him!

The reason is, it wasn't his kind of car!" 

Nice bit of profit for him! 

I go round and see my dad.

He thought it was Monday...

I said to him, "Don't use that swear at me using that M word!"

Suddenly a great song on the radio...

I started to do a little dance...↓

 I said to my dad, the prodigal son should give him back the £650 he spent on repairing the car,before he gave it to him...

"He won't do that...!" My dad replied.

I said goodbye to my dad.

Back home to unload the shopping..
