    Then, I get the Gospel According to Bunny's Mom on why I should never have left Canada, how evil i for depriving her of her grandchildren (although she's not been to visit in 3 years despite having 8 weeks off each summer!) and how wonderful my sister is. 'Look at how skinny amy is, look at what great boobs amy has' (I kid you not!)

    I will come home a quivering wreck.

    Sounds like a joyous family time Bun. Will you be able to come on here for some therapy while you're there?

    how come they say stuff like that? my Mum's classic is (when I come down stairs ready to go out) oo you'll look nice when you have finished getting ready. or is your hair meant to look like that?

    and the all time fave "what did you buy that for?"

    I know why she does it Zed, but the barbs still sting, a lot.

    She also told me my boobs were dead droopy whilst hers were like 'hubcaps' til she was in her 50's.

    Cheers.


    Also takes great pleasure in telling me how much sex she is getting despite knowing my situation...
