Millwall were formed in 1885 and despite us not forming until 1905, they still beat us in every one of the 20 years.MrOneLung said:
Just because the MKdons ‘gave’ the FA CUP win to AFC doesn’t mean they won the Cup in my opinion.Stig said:

Anytime there’s any organised run in the park, it has to come with a gaggle of people “Whooping & Hooping” and klaxons going off, why? FFS!0

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Most people fall into two categories:cantersaddick said:
The thing is, other than waste of space deadbeat toxic man child husband, they are all generally nice people and when we are out and about doing things and having fun they are great to be around and we have a good time. Her parents have done a hell of a lot for us in setting us up for life and we are very grateful. It's just when we are all in a big group as soon as something needs doing or there is anything that isn't about them having fun they all turn toxic and put it all on their mum who in fairness to her I think is just burnt-out from years of carrying the whole family.clb74 said:
Canters, did you know what the in laws were like?cantersaddick said:
Don't get me started on shops. The only place we found that was large enough for all of us and had a hot tub (certain family members refused to come without it) was out in the middle of no where. Lovely setting but at least half an hour to the nearest supermarket. We knew from previous experience that if we didn't sort it out it would be chaos with no plan and having to go to the shops every day. So set up an online shop for the day we got there, laid put a meal plan asked for people to give suggestions and request what they wanted. We did the majority of the work and got everything they asked for and more. Yet all we got was moaning "you didn't get this or that" well you had the opportunity to input to it and you didn't. Entitled brother is vegan so we even went to the effort of speaking to him separately and asking him for what he would like as alternatives to the meals we had. Again brought all the overpriced vegan fake meats he asked for only to be met with "you didn't get me vegan butter, you didn't get me that..." well you didn't fucking ask for it. I flatly refused to go back to the shops (other than one time when I was already out and passing) but that caused issues. I still ended up cooking every night and doing the majority of the clean up.Algarveaddick said:
I had no idea there were no shops in Devon? Seriously though, what a nightmare bunch they sound, you are a saint mate because they would have washed my hands of them after about 24 hours, especially the entitled mother of the 2 year old. I would have been practicing the bugle until she took the little ‘un to the bedroom… 😂cantersaddick said:
Yeah awful. Next week is meant to be good though. Once we've gone home.North Lower Neil said:
We're in Devon too, weather's been naff hasn't it?cantersaddick said:Been away with my wife's family for a week and whilst overall we've had a nice time there are so many things that have pissed me off.
- the fact that we seem to spend most of the time parenting 6 other adults who frankly take the piss.
- my wife's sisters toxic man child husband who is a deadbeat dad.
- her self absorbed, entitled younger brother. Who won't input into anything but will bitch and moan all day about it.
- that both her siblings and their partners take the absolute piss out of their parents for money and that we get dragged down to their level as the only way to not end up paying way over the odds for our share of everything.
- that her sister won't take their 1 year old to their room for a nap but will insist he naps on the sofa in the only communal space in our air bnb so for 2 spells of up to 2 hours a day we all have to sit in absolute silence. No telly, no music no talking. Can't even cook. God forbid you sneeze. Went out as much as possible at these times but given the weather in Devon has been shite there's only so many walks in the rain you can do.
God I can't wait to be home.
One beach day and then we've been finding a lot of indoor things!
Managed a day surfing and a beach day with some kayaking...
Good thing it wasn't nice weather as we were the only one's out of 8 adults who brought suncream (also toothpaste, toiletries, jumpers, coats - whilst also having the smallest amount of space to bring things) don't mind sharing but we buy a fancy one that's good for my sensitive skin and is really expensive so having 8 adults and a one year old clean us out of a years supply of it is a bit frustrating.
It's the entitlement of it that really grates on me, the sister just going into our room and opening drawers to find my wife's jumpers because she didn't bring any (can maybe forgive her that to a certain extent as she does have a kid and deadbeat man child husband to look after). Her asking my wife to borrow bras was a step too far though. Went to one of those nice fudge shops whilst out and about. Bought 3 lots of fudge. 1 to enjoy, 1 for my wife's work 1 for my work as gifts. First box was put on the coffee table and consumed by the waste of space husband within about 20 mins. Other 2 were put in our room to take home with us but somehow magically found their way out into the communal spaces less than a day later and were both consumed before we saw. Fucking liberty.
We only got 2 days of semi decent weather but Deadbeat dad/waste of space husband decided to miss his sons first trip to the beach so that he could watch the end of the tour de France. Then threw a strop that we wouldn't go back to the beach the next day in the pouring rain because he wanted to recreate what he missed. Other days when we had stuff planned and we're trying to get excursions planned around his kids nap times he refused to get out of bed and then wouldn't leave without a fry up first (which I ended up cleaning up 🙃 ) so by the time he was ready to leave it was baby's nap time and the whole day's plan was out the window.
How I didn't blow up I will never know!
Anyway rant over. Home tomorrow.
If you did why did you go away with them?
Trouble is my wife loves her nephew but they live in Bath so she doesn't get to see him that much so going away is a really effective way of her seeing a significant amount of him.

if you are expecting as a competent, caring individual to not get ponced off and taken advantage of the rest of your life, you're living in a dreamland. Toughen up petal 😁.3 -

@cantersaddick drains & radiators. Your in laws fall into the drains category 100%. One day you will tell them to poke it. Until then, try & forget about them & bask in the glory that you are a radiator and clearly a lovely human ♥️1

Me in bath. Mrs weeding out the front. Door slams shut. I hear it and deduce exactly what's happened, so rush to give myself the once over, so I can go and let her in asap.
What does she do, wait and maybe knock the once???? No, knocks every minute, on the minute for a whole 8 or so minutes, sending the dogs in a complete frenzy each time.2 - Sponsored links:

Mixed veggies and mixed salad packs.
Mixed veggies is basically tons of carrots, 1 piece of cauliflower and maybe a bit of broccoli.
Mixed salad, overflowing with lettuce and if yer lucky 1 tomato, 2 bits of corn.1 -
I have literally never bought one of those. Theyvlook dreadful and terrible quality. I bet they have as much nutritional value as soil. Just If you chop some fresh veg or salad. A million times nicer.sillav nitram said:Mixed veggies and mixed salad packs.

I think I might be mentioning this for the second time (or doubling up on someone elses post), but it is bloody annoying... When you buy tickets (or indeed it can be anything) on line and the information on the bill has sweet FA to do with what you have bought. Latest case in point is tickets to the Elvis exhibition at London Bridge. The bill? Gigantic from Nottingham...2
