    oh 5FP...families....:o he sounds oversensitive?!
    families can be so political!
    Oversensitive is an understatement with him. He read into the card meanings that just weren't there and now there is no way he can take back the awful things he's said about me. OH has tried to ring him about 5 times and he doesn't pick up.

    :j :j

    With the vitriol he's spewed it is doubtful! I think he's having a breakdown - FIL mentioned he thought that too a couple of weeks ago.

  • I know MIL would have sold her house for us, thats why we did not tell until we went BR.. my mum has little and is ill, i did not want her knowing but a family member called her and told her after they spotted it in the local paper.. they knew it would worry her and knew how ill she was.. thats my family for you.
    When i win the lottery, ill see my mom ok then laugh at the rest...
