I'm sorry for you that they're little cunts, Pepps, but that sounds like a perfect reason for someone somewhere to take the moral high ground and say "We're not going to get you McDonalds, if your mother wants to feed you that shite, its up to her, but here you eat Fruit and Broccoli. You can scream the house down all you like but all we have to eat here is Fruit and Broccoli, and you're lucky you don't get Brown Rice to eat with it. If you don't want to eat what we have, you can starve, think how healthy you will feel, if nothing else, you'll feel like Khloe Kardashian/Gwyneth Paltrow/[other witless celeb icon recognisable to brats] on a fasting binge"
At least it will mean they won't wanna come and visit you very often, and it sounds like they are spoilt enough to demand that of their parents as well. So if Nanny wants to see her little luvvies, she'll have to go to their place to do it. You'll have twice as much peace and quiet as well, while she's gone
As for "give me sweets", I'd be responding with "How about I give you a thick ear for being so rude?"
Someone really should make sweets called Thick Ears.

Grand kids are a nightmare when you have n overprotective lefty 'modern parent' mother.
I clipped one of my grand kids round the ear for being very rude to his Grandmother. I thought my daughter in law was going to call the police she was that wound up about me doing it. (just a tap, not a full on beating )
Told her to fuck off with her brat if she couldn't teach it any manners so had wifie moaning she never sees said grand kid any more.
Good riddance in my view. but I can't win this one. ____________________ Triumph Trophy Launch Edition |

You see Ms Hellkat, it’s not about lefty parents, it’s about lazy parents and an over protective nanny
I’ve tried the manners thing whilst at our house, but I just get shot down in flames EVERY time.
It’s not all bad though, they’ve gone home now yay!
I’ll be in the bad books for a few days for daring to say something, but I don’t care. ____________________ I am the sum total of my own existence, what went before makes me who I am now! |

Kids need telling from time to time, so I agree with you. We used to call my parent's house 'Grumpy and Nanna's Finishing School' because they always came back better behaved than they went. My parents took no rubbish from my kids, and I am grateful for that.

02.
Phoned me last month and offered me a 'buy out' on my current contract i.e they pay off the remaining £100 left on the phone plan meaning I could upgrade. I declined with the GS9 being on the horizon and told the person on the phone I would call back next month.
<1 month later>
I have no interest in the GS9 as the biggest difference between that and the GS8 is that it's more expensive.
So I phoned today and I am told I need to pay 80 ponds to upgrade and a further £87.99 for the phone but this can be waivered because of 'loyalty' I've been with them 10 years.
However the 'buy out' offer is no longer avalible and they are denying they ever offered me it in the first place the muppet on the phone told me the earliest they could pay off my remaining balance and upgrade me for free was with three months left on my contract and went on to tell me they don't give money away for free yada yada.
That is not all through mobiles.co.uk with a 50 quid upfront fee I can get the GS8 with 12GB data and unlimited texts and minutes. The best they can do for my 'loyalty' is £47 a month for 10GB data unlimited texts and minutes. When I told this to the muppet he said it's because it's through a third party. So basically it would be cheaper to go back as a new customer.
Fuck 02. They aren't the cheapest at the best of times it looks like I'm switching to another network.
Also latest version of Chrome is fucked it keeps crashing on my phone. |

I would imagine your original offer was from the outbound retention team, they have more budget than the inbound sales guys.
However, your inbound call will have been logged. And hopefully your number will get past to the outbound team again now because you called in - and didnt take a deal.
Assuming you called from you mobile?
I reckon youll get another call from them within 2/3 days. ____________________ 1993 RF400R - 2002 Bandit 1200 - 2012 1250 FA |

Bloody van won't start. It's due new glow plugs, this be why. Minus 6 on my dash display. I was kinda relying on that
being useable tomorrow as I was meant to be driving down to Beaconsfield. I have a spare battery which I'll be
popping on charge on charger A as soon as I've finished this post, then I'm hooking the van up to charger B Hopefully
with two batteries and some jump cables I should be ok... Only just got it to run yesterday when I took
the dog out, we had no snow until last night, that was the final straw. I suppose there might be a fuel heater device
that's N/W under there somewhere. Who knows? I'll get it booked in for ASAP and get it a service while its in. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

People, mainly in the public sector, who use an inch of snow as an excuse for a few days off.
We have schools where the kids turned up, but the teachers apparently can't, no refuse collections for a month as the local council have skipped the fortnighlty collection, rather than just delaying it, due to it being too dangerous.
The majority of people not working for the public sector seem to be able to carry on as normal though. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.
