I blame American TV shows for all this loveydovey family shite when the world model should be dysfunctional, loopy, mad as March hares pommy aristos. <BR/><BR/>Problem is Andrew, she demands we look after her, which we do, but she wants us to do it her way and at her convenience. We're doing it but the 'with love' ran out some time ago.<BR/><BR/>Well that's it, M'Lord. I suggest we start a chapter of 'Mothers Anonymous' and run it along the lines of 'Strangers on a Train'.JahTehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02007730071564639411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17391176.post-51792722095730450572008-03-07T23:13:00.000+11:002008-03-07T23:13:00.000+11:00me too .. here I am ... just the same as your "Onc...me too .. here I am ... just the same as your "Once again, apologies to everyone who really likes their mother because I don't give a flying fruitbat about mine" .. mine's dead.
