Hi
My brother in law this crimbo as ignored the family dinner ,boxing day and refusing contact he as an habit of being a twit. The problem is due tih behaviour his wife is now drink's booze like it's bloody tap water and im left with her kid and sod's off back to his home. Would it unresonable to slap him and show him hey im english but he 's a canadian shit with no manner's. This christmas was speacil because my mum in law is close to death and we have no other surivivng parent's so we had a good drink quite literally £300 bar bill we were all in a mess but who cares obviously the canadian one did. I apologise if canadian's are reading this but if were not for my hubby's job i would of floored him by now god help's us at mum's funeral were considering getting the police on stand by.

Forget the smileys. Move away from the smileys.

Just type properly.

Please!

ThePhantomPlopper · 29/12/2011 22:00

Smileys won't help love

crazynanna · 29/12/2011 22:00

Smilies underneath where you write your message. Don't forget the [] but no apostrophes are needed

ThePhantomPlopper · 29/12/2011 22:00

and is "dinosaur" an iphone auto correct?

JustAnother · 29/12/2011 22:01

daze18, smilies are not important. Full stops and capital letters are. They make your sentences understandable.

ilovesooty · 29/12/2011 22:01

There is a smileys list just below . The problem is with your written English, not the techie stuff: it's rather difficult to ascertain what the issue actually is

hester · 29/12/2011 22:02

I feel my arse tightening as I type.

AnnieLobeseder · 29/12/2011 22:02

Oh dear, OP has used up all her apostrophes. Look, none at all in the last post.

Sorry OP, I'm being a bitch, ignore me....

TwelfthNightIsComing · 29/12/2011 22:02

Have you thought about getting a stair-gate to keep his Canadian self away from the rest of you?

smackapacca · 29/12/2011 22:02

OK we're 87 posts in.

There's been a Canadian sexless crash that involves a lot of drinking.

Am I getting warmer?

squeakytoy · 29/12/2011 22:03

Poor poor BIL....

I would be on the next plane back, and joining Malcolm and the rest of the Mounties...

I think I've got it.

Oh wait.

No actually I haven't a frigging clue...

Pandemoniaa · 29/12/2011 22:03

I can feel a whole new set of catchphrases coming on. Anyone else for "I'm just not a bit dinosaur"?

To2012AndBeyondTheLimits · 29/12/2011 22:04

Hey, screw the full stops and capital letters even. Just make sure that the words that you write are the ones you intend to use ("on im and been"???) and I'll figure the sentences out myself :)

JustAnother · 29/12/2011 22:04

How old is his kid? I am just wondering whether the poor guy is still around because leaving the family would mean leaving the child

VajazzleMyFoof · 29/12/2011 22:04

what are you trying to say op. has your brother spent all the bar bill is that why he is shit. it is hard to read when you type like this

Yes??

I don't think the threading is the problem. It's the complete lack of capitals, punctuation (other than those apostrophes), sentences, and indeed sense that is the problem.
