    I am not going to talk about families....I'll give myself a seizure. :rotfl:

    Two mothers in law from hell and a father who is, shall we just say, a tad "challenging".

    It will all be in the memoirs.;)

    Not contemplating a third......but never say never. Lol.

    I'll see your two MILs and raise you the Scottish stalwart of an exclusive religious sect whose first act on meeting me for the first time, before I had taken off my coat, was to show me a photo of a toddler in ringlets. This was the girl they had aye hoped their darling son would marry.

    Our relationship went downhill from that point.

    Going to Poole on weds would be great.
    Unfortunately ,the rubbish run is on Thursday . :(
    Still trying to tidy up and seperate stuff.
    Trying to put the stuff for dumping in bedroom 2 ,and the stuff to be moved on weds to go to the living room .
    I say. Living , but the stench from those bin liners would kill anybody .0
    I have to go to Poole on weds to register with big yellow storage and then come back . Slightly annoying

    What on earth are you putting in the bin liners?

    Previous tenants?

    Pity. Would have been nice to get it all done Wednesday. Never mind you're nearly there.

    No, wendym, well, not all of them, mostly former colleagues, don't you know.

    What exclusive religious sect, pray, and did they construct a large, wicker edifice in the shape of a man on a regular basis?

    Honestly, AC, why don't you just tell them to do the rubbish run on Wednesday or forget it and you will hire a skip? Who's moving, them or you?
