|

Something I've been mulling over for a while, I'm curious how people feel about their siblings, parents, maybe children if they're old enough to have decided whether they hate you or not. I know a few people estranged from a relative, even to the point of someone who lives at home but doesn't talk with his siblings (it's not me... honest ).
I see it as you're very different people, and you're meant to somehow get along, and stay in contact because you share blood. The only relative I feel an affinity to is my Dad, cos he made an effort to keep in contact when I was a kid, driving a long way to see me etc. Although he's stopped talking to the rest of his family, and I think he's starting to do the same to me. I also wonder if we have an ok relationship because we've never lived together, as we're very different people and TBH more than a week in his company is challenging.
The rest of my family I couldn't really give a shit about. Am I a heartless bastard? |

Saw Mum, Dad, Sis and her kids over the BH. Was in London for other reasons and thought I'd better show my face as it's
been a year or so since I saw them all. After an hour of bedlam I was done. See you all next year. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

I get on better with them because I live 12,000 miles away from most of them.
Am only just back on speaking terms with the Mother, still very wary of that fucking minx. Am planning to "hold her to account" (again) in the foreseeable on current and future family arrangements now that my younger sister has some serious health concerns. THAT should be interesting!
Meantime what's left of "the Italians" continue to do my nut in on a regular basis over here
I'd like it if I was more geographically closer to Anita, who stung me for 500 bucks this morning, the mare #bankofmum ... so I guess we're still doing okay. ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

I genuinely thought about you as well Jen. I stayed at the illustrious and opulent Moby Dick in Marks Gate. Naturally I insisted
on a room that overlooks the Crazy Golf course, the Disneyland of Dagenham and our night out (I brought a Bristol
friend along) and the reason for my visit took place in Rayleigh. Next time I'm coming down, I'll get in touch and you and me
can go out for some cakes or something. You are right at the top of my list of BCFers I'd like to meet. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

Get on well with all mine, always have. My wife's family get on ok but they are chalk and cheese compared to mine. We can meet up for dinner, play a few games and laugh all evening, whereas my wife's family see each other a few times a year and the conversation is forced and fairly materialistic.
I make a big effort for my son to see his great Gran and Grandparents, as I think it's really important. There are some 2nd cousins who we don't see that often, but will happily catch up with at xmas etc.
I genuinely can't understand how people can fall out and not speak to each other for years. It's alien to me, but of course each family is different. There are down sides to having a close family, such as my wife not liking the fact that I visit my parents every week or two. ____________________ Current: 2009 SV650 S, 1990 Kawasaki GT550
