      ..and you can look innocent by inviting them anyway!

        Being in a lovely part of the world containing some of the best maintained public toilet facilities just sin't enough for some people.

          I have always worked on the principle that you should never live in the same city as the rest of your family.

          I did so well for years but now I have totally ****ed up by moving to the same city as Mrs Gonzo's family.

              Thanks. I think that is the nicest thing anyone has said to me in a long time.

                How can I put this, I am not enjoying not being able to pick and choose when to have contact.

                  OK, that translates as most of the time I wish they would **** off.

                    It will only take one more push and I will get there.

                    That is not going to be tonight though.

                    Goodnight.

                      That's why most of my family are in another country, bonus.

                      Mr N's family live over here but there's not as much pressure to bother with them. We tend to avoid the irritating brood and visit when they're not around.
