I AM IN SHOCK

[Fio2]

anyone remember how i almost begged MIl to help out at october half term as the six week holiday had been so bad, and sge refused and I got really down and davrois told me to pull my socks up........

welll

SHE HAS OFFERED TO COME DOWN IN THE SIX WEEKS AND HELP ME!

[SHOCKED SOOO MUCH]

so prepare yourself for me moaning about her during that holiday break

Fio, as a fellow-recipient of the "Could I care Less" MIL attitude, I am really pleased for you
Moan away!

We expect daily updates while she's there, you understand.

Thats good

Hope she is of some help!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know that she is going to now drive you up the wall .

Seriously - that is great.

I am just thinking at least me and dh will be able to go out alone occasionally of a nightime when kids are in bed, as we never get to do that. God i love her now

Oooh, I have turned into a French person Davrois, I like it
Did I tell you to pull yer socks up? Sorry Fio. I agree, she will now drive you mad, just make sure you get some free time out of it. She must have had a rethink? What do you reckon?

yes Davrois, I was quite arsey with her months stopped ringing her almost and she had a young woman move over the road whose daughter had special needs and I think she realised that i most probably DID need help and wasnt just being melladramatic like my SIL has a habit of doing

don't be fio. DH told his mum that she had to read some books on autism or we couldn't see her anymore. She did, and now visits are sooooo much better. She's even stopped going to bed in the afternoon!

I AM classy!

yeah of course, hehe. When are us common birds gonna meet up for a fag and pint then?

Fio - you're brave, couldn't put up with my MIL for 6 minutes never mind 6 weeks. She's just rung me for the upteenth time complaining about her fridge freezer. At least she's got electric in her kitchen, I haven't had any for a week and won't have for another 2.

And common? - you?!?

Davrois does indeed sound classy. Perhaps I should change my name to coppertoupe in her honour? You can all picture me as some mad little woman in a ginger wig - if you don't already, of course.

I look forward to the MIL updates during the holidays!

potty you do know where I was born and bred dont you?

or Coppertoque in a smart red hat.
We have a book on dinosaures...

Trust me to discover all these possible new names just as MN starts clamping down on changes.

Shane McGowan? Why haven't I heard this story before??

That is soooo funny CT!!!

MrsF...could become MadammeRetourde

Or MadammeOublieux...depends on what translation u choose!!!

Or LaVraieMadameOublie-whatsit?

How come you always appear just as I'm logging on to MN? Stalker!

that is fab Fio - and JJ - glad to hear improvements are on the way

Every little bit counts Fio - baby steps...
LOL at ... Davrois... so European.

With my fancy new name I feel like a French tart..... I look like an English pudding
Ah yes, me misspent yoof. Its all true
I will now go back to being plain, boring old Davros before MN changes the rules (mind you, I'm missing Dr Who while I post this)
