I live on MG - my neighbour mystifies me - he goes out most days at about 7.30am dressed fairly smartly, and then doesn?t come back till about 7 in the evening. What is he doing? He quickly mumbled something about ?the office? when I asked him recently. But I thought most people freelanced round here don?t they? That?s what I do anyway - drop the kids off, Cafe for a quick coffee, then freelance 10-12, lunch 12-1, then freelance 1-3, pick the kids up at 3.15, then go to the swings with the kids and chat to the other parents like me, then get the kids dinner and then wait for Mrs Bob to come back from her hospital shift at about 7, help her cook our dinner, watch Netflix or C4+1, then bed at 10:30. I think my neighbour has misunderstood something about what he should be doing on a day-to-day basis (and his house is smaller then mine).

Bob, I hope for your sake, you're also squeezing in a Pilates session in the mornings, just to make sure you can wear your lycra when you drop the kids off...

Small flat screen, big ones are vulgar.

    • I can't think of another one that wouldn't brie to cheesey.
    • Re previous post. .   Our youngest grandchildren only come up to London around 4 times a year and usually stay overnight. This holiday was different as their father in Liverpool had just changed jobs and had difficulties in getting time off for the 2 weeks he normally has the children for in the summer holidays so everything was up the wall. Daughter had booked a few days away (she had not had a holiday for 3 years) and we were the backup if all had failed with  Dad. As it happened, he could not get much time off, but his new partner looked after the children most of the time. We had the children for a few nights to support our daughter. We normally travel to Sussex to meet up with everyone (either by train or car)  Whilst we have our own health issues (physical) for our emotional health it is important that we play a significant part in our grandchildren's life,  Our eldest grandson (30) is very close to his grandfather who supported him emotionally and practically since he was a teenager. Grandson is now has a 6 year old son, named after his grandfather, and credits his paternal/fathering skills etc to us grandparents.
    • The young men selling knick-knacks on behalf of a 'rehabilitation centre' are out on Underhill. Young lad, tried to engage me, then begged saying he'd been on the street for 6 hours and might have to sleep rough. They are run by gang masters in the main and what they 'sell' is overpriced rubbish. Support young needy people through proper registered charities, not street collections such as this. The boys don't even get to keep, often, what they can scrounge. This one wasn't scary, just rather pathetic, but then I don't look that vulnerable. Watch out.
