ok so there is more to this. Some might remember other threads, some might not. Please don't tell me off for doing this by stealth, if bits come out. I just really cannot go into it as it is soooooo long and boring.
He has not met my DS/his nephew who is aged 16 months. And despite me telling him about the birth, and email exchange with him making sarcy comments on the 'jewishness' of his name (is your DH a jew then? etc), he insists on getting his name wrong, and I keep correcting him. I am not sure if this is lack of memory due to alcohol abuse or because he is actually pissed when typing or just cannot be fucking bothered to remember. He keeps calling him 'Rowan', the only similarity is it begins with 'R'.
So, he is coming to visit, I have reservations already. And this, well, should I even be bloody bothered to have him come to my home and entertain him and share my easter holiday with him when he cannot even get his nephew's name right, or should I just cancel it now? I am having moments like this a lot ! One part wants to see him, the other thinks there is little point.
Or am I being precious about his name?
