That rather fetching puffa jacket (circa 1987) that you saw me wearing in Dulwich Park on Sunday. I was only wearing it because my other warm jacket was in the BMW. Forgive me not stopping to chat but I feared the reek of mothballs would cause you hives. Mackenzie only coped because of his height and the dog didn’t seem to notice, probably because he’d just rolled in something that had recently been evacuated from a horses bottom. <br /><br />I swear that I had seen that jacket over the summer, stuck in the back of her wardrobe along with the other charity shop rejects. David tells me that I’m wrong of course but he would say that. He was treated to a new set of golf clubs (I had already been pressured by Er Indoors to buy him a new case) complete with covers and those little things they rest their balls on. And I got the Jacket of Death. After I had laid out a hundred quid on a voucher for a spa day for her. I tell you, she’s getting the worst that the Sue Ryder shop has to offer for her birthday. I’ll keep you posted. See you at the school gates.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748453999833334873.post-20115732909506420472007-01-02T11:17:00.000+00:002007-01-02T11:17:00.000+00:00I am speachless!I am speachless!dulwichmumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17106294077068237863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748453999833334873.post-28118935319849487612007-01-02T10:46:00.000+00:002007-01-02T10:46:00.000+00:00Lol, this really rings a bell with me.

God!<br />Your other commenters seam to have entirely missed the point and assume that you are keeping a genuine and accurate diary! rather than trying out the script for the next BLOCKBUSTER sit com. <br />Do they listen to Claire in the Community (R4) and think that all social workers think and speak and behave like that all the time? Clearly!<br />This is comedy folks. <br />Lighten up!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748453999833334873.post-71379383583551059932007-01-01T14:21:00.000+00:002007-01-01T14:21:00.000+00:00hey, merry x-mas n a happy 2007....don't be so ups...hey, merry x-mas n a happy 2007....don't be so upset about your mother in law's x-mas gift....look at it this way....even if she was trying to tell you "give more attention to home"....she's done it in a special way....by keeping your favourite designer in mind while selecting a gift...proves that she cares for you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748453999833334873.post-90172327534865428362007-01-01T14:14:00.000+00:002007-01-01T14:14:00.000+00:00Reminds me of the comedy sit-com 'Everybody loves ...Reminds me of the comedy sit-com 'Everybody loves Raymond'. Raymond's mother is subtly critical of his wife. But of course it's funny on the television. <br /><br />In real life you perhaps have to decide how badly you need your mother-in-law's good opinion. If it's nice to have but not essential then let it flow over you. <br /><br />No point in making yourself miserable when there's so much more to life.<br /><br />Happy new year..!Julius Seizerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03130472108464483876noreply@blogger.com
