Wonderful, Darling!   :laugh:  But I think the phrase 'Happy New Year' should be banned.

It was, and in six days we mark the 37th anniversary of our engagement. I class my life as BS and PS. Some people may interpret the BS differently, but it means before Sue. ;D

Speaking of mothers, can someone please remind me next year, that bringing my mother down for Christmas, is one of the worst ideas I have ever had. Even worse than the presents I bought for her, and not to mention Christmas lunch, though the pudding was quite nice. She bought it and apparently I'm quite good at reheating. (Aren't I clever)

Post by: Simon on December 27, 2008, 12:43
So, you'll go to her next year?  ;D ;)

It may take me a while to regain my sense of humour, Simon. So I'll bookmark this and laugh at it in about a months time.

Michael now refuses to go up there, and he takes priority, so I'll be staying with him, and only go up for the January sales. Retail therapy is very good for depression.

Sadly, mums can be incredibly selfish MB.  It's impossible to come up to their high standards but you will still suffer the same indignities and humiliation next year.

But you will miss them like mad when they are no longer around  :cry:

You have no idea, Clive.

Yes, I miss my father a great deal, he knew he had lung cancer and chose to do nothing about it.  :cry:

The guilt will get the better of you next year too.  She will be a year older.  ;)
