Customs vs an Irish Mammy – we all know who’s going to win.
The people at customs can be pretty scary – but nothing is scarier than an Irish Mammy when she’s riled, and we’d fancy Mammy’s chances any time.
However, Jacinta O’ Mahony decided to take a sweeter approach when sending her care package to her son Brendan who has been living in Australia for the last four years.
She attached a note for customs, just to let them know she meant no harm and to (bribe) ask them to let the gifts through.
Danny Roche sent a snap of the note in to our JOE bros – and it just proves what your Mammy always told you – you catch more flies with honey.
The note reads:
“Customs in Perth. Happy Christmas from Ireland, just some goodies for my family. Please have a sweet and we will see ye in August when we hopefully get to visit your lovely country. Thanks for letting my gifts through.”
