DH is 99% likely to get posted to the south of England next year. MIL and Step PIL are coming up on 23rd Dec and staying until the 27th. Because it will be our last Christmas in scotland for a few years. i also wanted to invite my mumand step-dad up on Boxing Day, also to stay overnight, and have a really good day with both sets of DSs gradnparents.
However, my mum wants my 30year old idiot of a brother to come. I have posted about him on one or two other threads. He is a selfish, lazy git. My mother runs around after him saying things like
"Do you want me to put salt on your dinner dear"
"Would you like me to butter your bread dear"
"Would you like me to wipe your ar*e dear".
Well ok, maybe not the last one, but i'm sure he would let her if she suggested it
She won't come up unless he comes, but DH and i don't want him, and we have told her this, he will eat and drink us out of house and home, sit around farting, and stinking the place out (and he never says excuse me, even though i tell the DSs to do it as it's polite), He will mioan at the tv shows we watch, moan cos he will be expected to the washing up with DH, PIL and step dad. I could go on and on but would run out of room.
So now we have reached a stale - mate. Mum wants brother to come and we don't. But we want to have christmas with the DSs grandparents
