Tell me some juicy gossip

[OhhBetty]

I'm bored and ds is in bed. Since an anonymous forum

They could share a party wall?

my grandfather cheated on my grandmother for years. She knew, he didn't know she knew.
My dad knew his half-brother socially but neither of them knew they were brothers.

No wonder there were people I didn't really know locally who were my age who looked like me - they were my cousins.

Most of my dad's family still don't know.

One of the campaigners against a wellbeing project in our area pretends he is against the project because of wildlife concerns. It's a lie. The real reason he doesn't want it to go ahead is because he nicked quite a bit of public land to increase the size of his garden a number of years ago and doesn't want the council to find out.

My cousin was a taxi driver and drove a drunk girl to a secluded area and tried to assault her. thankfully she got away but it's a family shame that no one talks about and he lives with his parents. His parents can't see their grandkids because he kids' mum won't let them whilst he is living with them. There is a family wedding next year and the mother of the bride wants to invite the cousin to keep up the pretense nothing is wrong but the bride's sister won't go if he goes.

A woman I used to be really friendly with was single but would constantly chase married/attached men. She ended up getting chlamydia and spreading it about the work.

It does seem to have crossed over from juicy gossip to depressing tragedy.

My uncle's wife was caught by my cousin (her step mother) announcing (to her mother so step gran) her engagement over skype to another man. This was yesterday.
To be honest that's all I've got and I'm flapping my mouth like a fish over it all! No idea how long she's been cheating etc.
We thought uncle rushed into the marriage but there's a possibility that the fiance is her son's dad (my cousin's step brother). My cousin is trying to find out.

Sorry. That's a bit depressing too.

Hold on I'll try and bring it back with something a bit lighter... I was quite a shagger in my youth so I should be able to find something...

I try and think of something here in the school run!

I befriended the OW.

My not so close NDN has someone leaving in their front garden. They have a caravan being used as either extra bedroom or house for someone. They always have parties and bbqs almost every weekend. Their four white vans on the road are a nuisance to the whole neighbourhood taking up all of the parking spaces. Even the council can't help. This is excluding all the cars they have.

Dh thinks one of the parents at dds school is drug dealer.

i dont get why youre waling past the cupboard she was in wigels-do u live in the house now?

How I understood it was that she visited the house whilst the body was still hidden in there and it freaks her out to think about it to this day.

my ex work collegue was shagging another member of staff when we all worked permanent nights i was a nurse she was a HCA the guy she was shagging was a charge nurse they were both married and used to go off and shag in empty offices on night shifts

Dh knows that his niece won't get any further in the job she is in but has not advised her on what to do. Dh thinks that most employs in the industry he is in will avoid her because of the age she is at and her marital status. I can't get involved because am not that close to her but I feel sorry at the same time. Lovely job with lost of perks but you need to move around to move up. He says she is not very good with leaving a distance away from her parents. Tried and failed.

Second thing he said was that she has been in her current job too long which means she is not hireable. New employers will think she will bring her old habits from her previous job. He has seen employers do it.

Every one now is waiting for a child to pop out since she has just gotten married.

A family friend has been having an intermittent affair with a married man for over 40 years. As a young woman she babysat for him and it began. They both moved away and lost touch for a little while. He wrote, but her dad burnt the letters. Somehow they reconnected. Around various marriages for both of them, they have met across continents whenever they get the chance. He has worked way past standard retirement age because it gives him an excuse to travel abroad for conferences and meet her. He's the love of her life. I'd love to know if he feels the same, or if she's just a holiday bonus for him.

A parent whose kid has been in my kids class all the way through primary is a drug dealer! I found this out when another parent ended up in court for stealing jewellery from his house She was there buying drugs from him at the time. Of course the police don't know this! I was shocked at the brass neck of the dealer parent going to the police. Surely they were risking the other parent telling police all about it??

OK I'll try and lighten things up a bit - this isnt 'gossip' I guess but quite lovely - a friend of mine has been through a horrendous few years; very abusive ex, redundancy, lost both her parents, cancer diagnosis (now fine thank god) but has been seeing a new man for the past 18 months. He is wonderful, adores her and she is absolutely madly in love.

What she doesn't know is that he has arranged for them to fly to Australia for 3 weeks to visit her son, daughter in law and first baby grandson. He's sorted it out with her work, I'm having the dogs and when I pointed out that she'll need a load of luggage he said he'll 'buy her whatever she wants when they get there'. She thinks they're flying to Dublin for the weekend.

I also happen to know that he has a rather lovely item of jewellery that he's hoping to put on her finger when they are over there. I'm beyond excited for her. 😊

My ex- boss is horrendously racist and sexist and has refused to hire people for the following reasons and the idiot actually wrote it on the feedback forms..

Not white
Has an accent he didn't recognize (she was Geordie and lovely)
Was under 25 and female and therefore likely to get pregnant soon
Had brown skin and would therefore need to pray 5 times a day (he was italian..)

My job was to "process" bin all the feedback forms once the interviews were over and send out the hire/ rejection emails...

What he didn't realize is I was taking photos of all the forms on my phone before I binned them..

I handed in my notice and the next day forwarded the whole lot to HR.

Bumped into an old colleague in town the other day, he's still there doing the same job and nothing was done about the blatant racism, I'm still the only person who knows :(

Person A was with person B for 10 years.
Person A starts having affair with person C(who is single).
Person C sleeps with person D.
Person D falls pregnant.
It all comes out about person A and C's affair.
A and B split up.
A falls out with all the family (and still isn't talking to us)
A and D are sisters.

Whatamess that is blooming lovely, and proper romantic to boot!

ah thats lovely Whatamess
