That sounds like it. The one where there are others standing around looking like Billy no Mates ;-)

Do you mean that thing where they have some sticks stuck in the ground and run up and down between them waving a bit of wood?

Oh has been watching some men in white hanging around in a field. When I came into the room one of them appeared to be trying to do a cartwheel. What a noise, I thought he’d ripped his trousers :-D

She was after a big wedding, with a parish councillor. I really could not be arsed and I didn't want to be related to her anyway.

I'm liking your style Sharron. An aunt of mine used to swag about her teenage daughters boyfriend then backtracked furiously when the relationship looked like lasting. I suspect my cousin dug her heels in and married the guy just to pee her mother off. It didn't last.

I did my best. I asked "Is it finished?".

Island, his mother told him he had to have me because I was a parish councilor and I worked in a cosmetic factory with access to cheap cosmetics. he was sold out for a bottle of Youth Dew!

for my part, I was very busy and had no time to organize his departure and his mother had begun to very much regret her introduction by then and that was a big bonus!

Whenever there is a strange noise or bad language you rush in and ask if he is alright and whether he has hurt himself. Once you’ve discovered that it only that odd ball game you ask him how it is going, what the score is, who scored. What league are they in. Will they be moving up or down.

Wow, you could go on for hours :-D

Umm...... what was it that drew you to each other if you have no mutual interests?
Keep it clean, there may be a lurker........ lurking.

This is the problem, Liz, It is not supposed to be dialogue. It is meant always to be statement and grunt, not statement and interested question.

That throws the whole dynamic out of kilter. I don't know what I am supposed to do after that.

Oh Sharron, what it would have been to have been a fly on your wall all these years!

Your dialogue with your family members sounds fascinating!
