#number two: he's said his mom is hot elsewhere as well but while i don't actually think it's THAT weird it's a bit odd to both say

She was very kind, very loving. There was a lot of sitting on laps and cuddling. She was very cuddly. I think I was very close to her. My brother thinks he was a little closer, being littler. I would just be trying to be a bit more butch, being the older one. She liked to joke and had a good sense of humour and she was very warm. There was more warmth than I now realise there was in most families.

I think she was pretty good-looking. To me she's just a mum and you don't look at a mum the same way as you look at film stars or something. She had slightly wavy hair in a bob, I suppose she would have described her hair as mousy. It wasn't jet black or red or blonde or anything, it was kind of an in-between colour. She had gentle eyes and wore rimless spectacles. She was quite striking-looking. She had lovely handwriting and was quite nicely spoken for Liverpool and encouraged us to speak the Queen's English. That's why I never had too thick a Liverpool accent.

#two things: #Paul reporting a need to be 'a little more butch' at age whatever it was is so interesting and sad #there's a lot of that in his reminiscing isn't there? of the fear of being soft and the very early need to not be seen as such #but you don't get that from say George or Ringo really #number two: he's said his mom is hot elsewhere as well but while i don't actually think it's THAT weird it's a bit odd to both say #'my mom was hot' and 'you don't think of your mom that way' when clearly you just admitted to #AGAIN I'm not actually interested in slamming him for this he's allowed to have mommy issues but the way he expresses it is of interest #paul mccartney #many years from now #Kris reads myfn #kris talks a lot
