How often do you call your mum?
The average woman will spend the equivalent of two months of her life chatting on the telephone to her mother, according to research.
The study by Sainsburys Mobile found that women make an average of three calls a week to their mum, with each conversation lasting just over 16 minutes.
That’s a total of almost 49 minutes a week, one day and 28 hours a year or almost two months between the ages of 18 and 50.
The study of 2,000 women discovered more than one in 10 ring their mum at least once a day, while another 13 per cent admit their conversations usually last at least half an hour each time they pick up the phone.
But poor old dad is treated to just one phone call a week, lasting less than seven minutes a time.

I have to admit, despite the ups and downs in our relationship, I tend to call my mum at least once a week, for a fairly long chat.
She lives alone, 120 miles away, and we get to see each other about three or four times a year.
So I not only feel responsible for her, but I like to keep her up to date with everything that’s going on.
I give a fair amount of time to my Dad too – since they’re divorced so I have to keep him updated with our news just as much.
But if I’m upset or have a problem, mum’s the one I’d automatically go to first.
Whether you’re spending time with your mum this Mother’s Day – or treating her to a long phone call – have a great day.
