Random Irritations

In-laws visiting and staying here for Christmas and new year (not a problem), but him wearing his baseball cap indoors all day is starting to bug me.
 
The dickhead dogwalkers all over the golf course today. Especially the one who walked right down the middle of the 1st fairway, saw me waiting to play and then stopped for five minutes to take pictures of his dogs. If I hadn't been sneaking on to another prestigious course, I would have just hit it over his head regardless.

Out with the in laws for a lunchtime Indian. Set menu, £8, 1 drink, lemonade as I'm driving. Kids had the same. How the effing and jeffing did we end up throwing in £20 a head then :mad::mad:. SiL got trollied and over ordered, mountains left behind, and I got to pay for the pleasure of it.
 
Sad old gits like me reading & posting on an internet golf forum - Bah Humbug.

Oh and the state of Christmas TV programmes!!

Definitely. Can't remember such a miserable choice of viewing on a Christmas Day ever.
🤣🤣🤣this thread !!!! It never fails to disappoint with its rose coloured, nostalgic nonsense. If this place (& the internet) had been around in the 70’s we’d have had threads talking about Dixon of Dock green & how it was better during the war

Tighter than a natts chuff you .
 
If it was a one off that would be a fair comment. It's happened too many times though. Taking the lend is the phrase.

To prove I'm not tight I'll even buy you a half when we eventually get to meet (y). Just a half mind :LOL:

i wouldnt take a beer off you incase you brought it up at a later date 😀
 
My Ex and how she treats our kids, she asked me to continue the tradition of buying each other a present from the kids so they can pick something as they enjoy it, no problem I said. Took the kids out before Christmas all 3 chose a seperate present each and card which I happily paid for and was meant to exchange today when I picked them up as wasn't allowed them Christmas day as usual.. Now for the irritating bit...

Despite saying no to christmas day, she rocks up at my new in-laws at 6pm Christmas day with the kids and their packed bags to drop them off unannounced as she has now made plans with her new boyfriend on the day despite telling me I can't have them and asks for her present from kids, so to not ruin kids Christmas they give their mum her present, the Inlaws make room for kids give them presents include them in games and they're staying now till tomorrow... Yet despite all this she gives me nothing and it takes my daughter to say sorry we haven't got you a present daddy, mummy wouldn't let us buy you anything... Tell her not to worry having them here is all the gift I could need. I text the ex to advise her when I'll drop them home as will have their presents to bring home only to receive a reply of, I won't be home don't know when I'll be back as I'm busy and didn't bother with your present didn't see the point...

Haven't even warranted her with a response instead my partner, her family and I have all had fun watching kids films, making lego and having fun. Yet she wonders why my kids keep asking to come and live with Daddy and his girlfriend who treats them like her own...

First time I've been able to vent that any where in 2 days as never speak bad of her in front of kids... And breathe..

She sounds just like my daughters mum! Luckily I got full custody about 10 years ago and she wants nothing to do with her mum

That's the next step in this long saga that's continued for 5 years, she refused mediation stating in a text msg, "I'll never agree to anything you ask I'm there mum I decide the rules and you have to do what I say and see them when I say end of". I didn't reply just took it to a solicitor as my evidence of refusal to get ball rolling to get proper agreed access,.sadly its a bloody long process. One day it will all settle down god knows when that day is though.
 
Your step daughter and her partner crashing through the house at 3am yesterday and 2am this morning then spending all day asleep.
Meanwhile in adult land there’s stuff around the house to get done and I’m back at work today

What an utter bitch! I don't get how parents can take their "feud" and have it impact on the kids - that's simply cruel and terrible parenting. Sounds like they've got a great Dad though so just keep on doing what you're doing.
