right - just for you a REALLY lame one:


a guy walks into a bar and sees 3 pieces of meat hanging from the ceiling and asks "What's this all about?"
the bartender replies, "well, if you can jump up and slap the meat, you get free drinks for the rest of the night - but if you miss, you pay for everyone's drinks for the next hour. wanna go?"
"Nah" the guy replies, "the steaks are too high"

boom, boom!!

Now another problem I need advice with. As you know DS got married and all went well. However they did not have formal pics as such so the only pics of OH and I and DD and her fiance are ones we took ( and they are lovely). So last week link came to wedding pics and some of them are fab but stuck in the middle are 2 pics of my oldest sister and my oldest brothers family ( the one I barely speak to) which my sister had obviously asked the photographer to take so i got really upset. I know it was their wedding but we made a good contribution and did a lot of running around ( I know he is our son). so I was on the way to London to work and rang DS quite upset that there are no pics of all of us together. i could hear my new dil in the background screaming that her family were not in them either. yes maybe so but the girl who took the pics is the sister of one of the bridesmaids ( one of dil's best friends) and there are loads of her.
I had offered to do a t party when they come down before Xmas for the grandparents and others who were not invited to the wedding so suggested we have some photos there which DS thought was a good idea so we left it at that.
So on Thursday sis and I went to stay at theirs before working in London and we arrived at 9.00 but DIL was out for dinner. He showed us their honeymoon pics and was pleased to see us. But there was a continual stream of texts from his wife and when I went ot say goodnight to sis ( she went on to bed) she said one of them said something like will they be in bed when I get home. So I waited up and he went downstairs for a cigarette and called me to say he would be a few mins waiting for wife. When they came up she was very cool with me and we sat up for about 20 mins talking and I was sorry about the photo thing. Anyway went to bed and was upset all night as I felt she did not want us there. In the morning she pointedly stayed in their bedroom and only came out to say goodbye after he went in and talked to her.
So what do I do? Talk to DS about it or leave it? Cancel the party as when we discussed it that night she did not seem keen?

Weddings can be as stressful as they are joyous and the repercussions can last.

My penny's worth, be the bigger person and carry on regardless. What's happened has happened. You can't change the past. If you cancel the party, it will only add to the bad feeling. Just make Dil feel as welcome as you possibly can.

Looks like Mr Fish is edging his bets, judging by two separate parts of that report:

Forecaster Michael Fish ... said the weather over the coming days would not rival the Great Storm.

[...]

But he said a repeat of the 1987 storm was "possible".

We are right in the middle of 2 mountains, the wind is whistling down the valley. I hate to think what tonight will bring if this is just normal October weather. :eek:

Hi AM, Have been wondering where you are lately, hope all is sorted for you now!:D

Good to see you about, LB. Real life is not good for me. I thought I'd come on here for a little escape. Anyway, I'm seeing the correct people t sort my stuff so hopefully all will be well

How are you keeping? :A

EMMAP

Rose, I'd say it honestly depends on the reasoning behind the party. If it's just so relations can get together who couldn't make it to the wedding then that sounds perfectly reasonable. But if it's to do with who had photos and who didn't.....sounds less about them and more about appeasing family members which it shouldn't be. Does that make sense?

If your DS and DIL aren't keen on the party then I'd leave it. Just get together and make it about all the family if that's what you want.
