The aftermath of stupid xmas gifts..

[TheCanyon]

Db2 has just received a fucking pear tree from db1 Db2 doesn't use his front patio garden EVER and db1 knows it. The back garden is slabbed/astroturfed. I suspect its due to db2 gf having 6 other kids, no I'm not a troll or joking. My 22yo db got with a 34?yo with 6 kids, provided for them all and had two more with her. Db1 is a bit snotty whereas all 8 of them are my nephews/ nieces.

Db1 is in london,, we're in a 50 mile radius of edinburgh, so we've not met dsil very often once before and once at wedding

Our presents not arrived yet, but what the fuck can it be? A pear tree is up there with the most amazingly blind presents.

God reading it back, I wish I hadn't posted bout dsil dc.

Maybe your gift is a partridge to go in the pear tree

Maybe they could donate it to a school? Care home could be another option. If you report your post, MN may be able to edit the post to remove the parts about the DC.

Db2 is 22 but has had 2 kids and provided for 6 others? And they're already classed as your nieces and nephews?

You're obviously closer to DB2 than 1. Can you give the tree a home?

Maybe it's in a pot, in which case no issues with the patio/astro

Maybe he thought a tree could carbon offset some of those 8 kids and their hideous astroturf?

Just stick it in a pot and let it grow.

When DB2 was a teenager he got together with a 30 year old and had two kids? A 30 yo that had 6 kids?? And he is providing for them? How? I have a good job and I can't afford 6 kids.

Is your vent really about a pear tree?
