Done before but it’s fun. So guess the book and the mil

[Seasawride]

Help! I have one dd. My mil has lived with us since we have been married.

She is a very strong woman and overruled me on everything. She sends me to bed if I sneeze.

When dd was 2 dh pissed off capturing butterflies in Africa and I havnt heard off him for years. Bastard. So mil got friendly with a wierd lady next door. She has big hair coils round her ears, writes books and has lots of kids.

I am concerned she is also involved in modern slavery as she has a woman living with her called Anna who does everything.

Anyway mil and this wierd Jo woman have colluded to send dd to a boarding school.

Aibu to just want to move away with dd. Start again and have some fun?

Guess the book and keep going.

Drudge - Jesus!

So I feel like I probably have micromastia, but the exercises I'm doing to improve the situation aren't helping. Someone must must must know how to help? Is anyone there to give some advice?

My wife is barking mad

I'm considering bringing the prostitute I've set up in a house to live here.

I intend to employ her as my daughters nanny

My wife will never know.

What could possibly go wrong?

It was the gruffalo. Only just discovering this due to a niece who is obsessed lol

I'm catching up again. So scrolling through...

iismum is that Bleak House

Lettice We're going on a bear hunt

MrStark Catcher in the rye

Nope not Catcher

The crimson petal and the white.

That was for your last one MrStark.

The Children of Green Knowe?

I need to read more!

Don't think my last one has been identified yet unless I have missed it.

Scheheramard, are you Margaret?

Yes the New Testament. Technically it was Peter's wife's mother that was healed. I often wonder what the disciples' wives thought about it all.

Have you read The Testament of Mary by Colm Toibin, Drudge, that imagines Jesus' mother's view of it all.

Gasp got mine from about 3 hours ago - Dr Thorne. Sorry for disappearing after posting!

Gah I can't believe I am so thick! I could guess barely none of them- even the New Testament, and I went to a heavily Christian school where we prayed/read the bible etc etc every day.

Yes Glam

I worked hard to ensure my daughter was a sensible sort with no silly notions and put her faith in facts

Today she came to my study and cried in my face that I have broken her and she doesn't know how to love.

What did I get wrong?

Lancelottie Yes!

Hard Times?

Yes Glam!

MrStark's had ... I think the Crimson Petal and the White (or something like that), and ... The Little Friend?

There was also Devil's Cub a while back - not sure if anyone got that?

I haven't done Bleak House! Our Mutual Friend is the only Dickens I've done.

I do so want to do good in the world, to do something worthwhile with my life. Unfortunately although I have both brains and some money I'm living in the nineteenth century so my plan is to marry some great man as soon as I can and assist him in his worthy academic endeavours. I'm not too bothered whether he's young or good looking as such trivialities aren't important to me. I'm 19 BTW. AIBU?

Emily - Middlemarch!

DS is a simple man, but a good one - he even has a trade and makes a respectable living from it. Recently he got involved with a flibbertigibbet who is now pregnant. He believes its his but I have my doubts. There have been rumours about this girl - she's been seen with a flash type called Gabe and some even say the baby is her god father's. I've put my misgivings aside for now - we're all god's children after all - but now they've come up with this ridiculous idea that they take a city break, just before the baby is due! I've told them the city will be very busy this time of year and they've no chance of booking in anywhere. What if the baby arrives early? That is not a stable environment to bring a child into the world? Should I say my piece or keep quiet?

Lettice The nativity? Joseph's mother.
