So here's the scene. I'm talking to my dear Mother, M-i-L, similar and I'll be mid-flow. Seriously getting into what I'm saying, y'know, making a point or cracking a funny and then BAM, DS1 or DS2 barges in and starts spouting off as children do, interrupting me at a tremendous rate of knots. This ends anything valid/valuable/entertaining that I have to say, as all attention thereafter is devoted to said child.
Scenario: Me: 'and she stepped on the ba...' ds1 slides in stage left: 'I LOVE LILY SHE'S MY GIRLFRIEND AND ONE DAY WE'RE GETTING MARRIEEEEEEEED' Mum/M-i-L: 'Really darling?? How interesting, tell me all about it in great detail, your mother was boring the knickers off me anyway' wanders off with said child stage right. Me: 'so basically what everyone here would like me to do is shaddap and stand over there then?'
Maybe I'm being unreasonable, but this happens a lot. Maybe I'm actually deadly boring.
