I suspect we are both glued to the Remembrance Service, LG :-) I guess I will need the tissues again, or if not, tonight, definitely tomorrow!

He has made quite a name for himself so I expect you are relieved to be shot of him :-D

YG

YG Report 11 Nov 2021 21:52

I'm not the only one that thinks he is obnoxious!! The hairdressers do as well, although they have no idea that he is my ex. He used to take one of his neighbours in a wheelchair for her appointment and waited for her. They were talking about him one day and it sounded so like him, I asked them where he lived and realised they were on about him :-D :-D :-D

Third time unlucky YG :-0 :-0 :-0 :-D. Maybe the baker's staff will get fed up with his foul mouth and put something nasty in his pie :-D :-D

YG

YG Report 11 Nov 2021 21:44

I forgot to tell you that I have seen Steptoe a couple of times up at the local shops. I didn't speak to him, as I dodges out of the way!!! He has a mobility scooter now and I bet he is deadly with it :-D :-D :-D

I was queuing just by the open doorway of the bakers and he was stood right behind me. I wouldn't have realised except that he was his usual foul self and was mouthing off to the assistants (in jest!) telling them to hurry up as he was starving. As soon as I heard the voice I knew and I just turned sideways and walked straight out. I saw him again last week going in for his pie or whatever he was wanting, so I went straight into the hairdressers and called at the bakers when I came out. Odds on I see him again tomorrow, but I will duck and dive again. He didn't even recognise me :-D :-D :-D

Very true but the 2 girls are very sensible and understand Mum's health problems which helps.

That will get worse as they get older and start going out mixing with friends more, LG :-0 :-0

Unfortunately H has to be careful because of the treatment she has to have :-(. It is not easy to avoid colds etc when you have 3 kids in the house

YG

YG Report 11 Nov 2021 20:59

My d.i.l is the same, ZZzzz, and also feels the cold so the central heating is on full blast :-0 They have always got colds or chest infections, although she tends to be a bit of a hypochondriac anyway, like her mother!

ZZzzz

ZZzzz Report 11 Nov 2021 20:55

Oh ok thanks YG.
My mother in law house was alway spotless, I'm sure she had OCD before it known as it is now, which in my opinion is why he has low tolerance to colds etc. I have to say that he doesn't go round feeling sorry for himself and expecting sympathy though, not that he would get any anyway.
