Can't you give him all your kids for a few hours? Go out with the kids and him, say can he mind them for 10 minutes while you do something out of eye shot and disappear for two-three hours.Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostOh dear. My brother(the million dollar trader one who used to be in 1para and claims to have turned down the SAS though he probably did actually join) has been in touch.
This means he wants something.
HELP.....
Another trick is to get one of the kids to answer your phone, refuse to hand it over to you and hang up on him.
Then he will then leave you alone."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

All good ideas. However I would be worried about the effect on the kids. No doubt they would come back being binge drinkers and expert shots.
The best bit was when he was on million dollar trader. The mother-out-law asked how much older he is than me. He is 9 years younger!
He always says how he was at Sandhurst in January 3am chest deep in water he had broken the ice to get into. He thought "It could be worse, I could be in a desk job".
When at my desk and I think things are bad, I think "It could be worse, I could be at Sandhurst in January 3am chest deep in water I had broken the ice to get into."Comment
