AIBU - Books part 2

[theyoungvisiter]

as you were ladies.

(this one is a bit obvious, but I couldn't resist)
AIBU: with my DB. We decided that we needed some help around the farm (as we are both quite old) and thought it would be a good idea to get a young boy orphan to help around . But: what does he do - he goes and brings back a girl, FFS. And not just any girl: a red-head who is in frikkin' cloud cuckoo land all the time. AIBU?

Quattro: is he an artistic type by any chance? Talks to geese? (bit of a loner eccentric?)

oh tony, it ain't that obvious! I'm lost

tonybleh, But she's got lots of experience with children, Marilla. You could start a creche - probably more money in it than farming.

We live on an Island off the coast of Canada.

Ladies! I managed to stay away for a whole two hours!

Tony - I think if you're not careful this could turn into a string of stories. Good job she's a feisty girl.

AIBU to be mightily pissed off with my idiot DH? The snake was hardly my fault and all he had to do was FOCUS to solve all of our problems!! He's got too many groupies I'm afraid. It'll be his downfall, you mark my words!

Kind of a book. Part of one anyway.

Shit... DH and I have no money to buy food, he earns an absolute pittance chopping wood.

AIBU to tell him to abandon the kids in the woods?

Bouncing, I think its quite a sound idea economically. Hopefully someone nice will foster them informally while you get back on your feet.

Quattrocento should you be wary of boats?

Make sure they don't have any white shiny pebbles with them though Bouncing.

AWBU? My twin and I have just started at the same boarding school where our older sisters have done brilliantly.
We are thinking of running away because they have put us in the dimwits' class, chucked us out of Guides and won't let us play netball.

Oh, Moomin ... I heart you.

Just keep practising your cricket, and see if you can find an unusual play to perform.

Oh, and don't get too friendly with that rather dashing boy next door. He's a heartbreaker.

Spot on Moomin - one of my favourites.

I have also just started at boarding school. AIBU to be a bit confused by all these new rules? The teachers seem to be different every day, and people keep talking about a war, although I thought we were pulling out of Afghanistan?

CJCregg, but he is dishy, just a bit too keen on going to Mass.

CJCregg, I think you should watch which bed you're climbing into.

It's the one by the window ...

ooh! flounce! I don't get it!

Ouch! I say, that's jolly rotten!

Salome, I sometimes feel that I'm in the wrong place ...

is there a timetravel thang going on?

CJ, the one with the wheels on? I think it's your turn for the china doll now.

Oooh I don't know what it is! My knowledge of boarding school fiction doesn't stretch past Harry Potter. More clues...
