Ahhhh, you're remembering saving up 20 squids from your paper round when you were 15 to buy your sweetheart a Ratners ring!Originally Posted by Dillinger
We've all done it...
The pic was 14 carat which I've always thought looked the nicest colour.

^^ I'm not from East London, Dil - I never did rings although you Northern types love 'em.
Laid up with food poisoning since Christmas eve...can't even keep a glass of water down for long.
Nobody loves me - boo hoo!

No wholemeal bread for christmas bteakfast.
No friends - no problems - no expectations - good.
My kids school is fcuked up. They go to a private catholic school. The school doesn't follow the national school holidays list. They have different holidays. Anyway, today's Xmas a time to celebrate the birth of Jesus. Not this catholic school. It's a normal school day.
Now come a Buddha Day on the calendar they take a holiday.Also at the school the children are only given a spoon to eat with. They have to use their fingers to push food onto the spoon. My missus goes up to complain as my children's table manners have gone down the pan. The head honcho ask for our children's names and promises they'll have a fork as well after the holidays. My wife asks if the other children will get forks as well. She's told that he'll have to ask at a higher level.

My BiL is a cnut. He was married, and with his wife they had a son. The marriage folded. The mother went off to Pattaya. The BiL dumps his son on my MiL. The BiL live's in the village. BiL won't take the son back and neither will the boys mother. The BiL gives the boy money for playing on the computers but nothing else. MiL also gives the boy money for computers, when she's here.
My MiL is now with a Swedish guy who goes home to Sweden with her for 6 months of the year. The MiL can't take the boy with her to Sweden. So does the BiL look after the boy? No. My MiL has to pay for someone to look after my BiL's son for 6 months of the year.
My BiL's ex wife, the boy's mother, is returning to the village soon. Is she going to take her son back? No, but she's open to negotiations. In other words she will take her own son back if my MiL pays her the right amount of money.
I'm just at a complete loss with these people. Please don't tell me this happens back in my own country.
