What is she on about?

My Dad used to mutter about white sticks and blind men. The first time he met Mr Wench he asked where his white stick was.  ::)

Being a Dad is great ..... When the elder daughter's first husband (a callow youth who I never really took to) cornered me in the garage one day I thought "he is looking shifty .... summats up."
Anyway he said "I want to ask for your daughter's hand"
Given a feed like that what could I say other than "And what's wrong with the rest of her?"
He fled in tears.
Rotten bastard aren't I eveilgrin:

That's what's good about being a Dad. After that bf she caught another who said a similar thing one evening. This time I replied "Her hand? .... Why not ~ you've had all the bloody rest".
 Neither Mother nor Daughter spoke to me for a week after that one  cloud9:

Then she went back to the first one and married him anyway.


As I recall some four or maybe five lined up over a couple of years to propose and she still managed to pick the wrong one and left him two years later.

Nope.


Though husband # 2 is a nice lad.
He is Sri Lankan, black as the ace which gets some funny looks when they come up here as her daughter is very very blonde and blue eyed (result of first marriage) and calls him Dad. Acceptable where they live though so no problems for them on that score.
Only fault I can find with him is he doesn't like cricket ......... oh and he was born in Welwyn Garden City ::)

He's a nice lad. Steady and reliable.
As with all boys he has no doubt got his faults but he is clean (doesn't smell or anything which is a plus) and he is very polite (which probably means he has had his hands in her underwear).
Bit of a sportsman .... Fences for Wales Juniors and is hopeful of Olympics selection .... which gives us something in common as I used to fence for the RAF.
Trouble is he is very focused on (i) the Olympics and getting selected and (ii) becoming a vet so he actually studies very hard.

THW is one of those annoying kids who sits and dreams through every class to the dismay of her teachers who then find that she has heard and understood everyword they have said and has, via her mother, got so far in advance of her lessons that she could teach the class (and has on a couple of occasions when "called out" by a doubting teacher). Because she finds it all so easy (and we are aware of the danger that she will lay back too far and fall badly) she struggles to understand the work ethic of her BF and his subsequent unavailability.

Yup ..... they got together because they  are "misfits" at the school.

There is a little group of about five in all who took some time to find one another but could all be described as "misfits" because they are bright and know what they want and where they are going. They have all been bullied badly ("We don't have a bullying problem at this school" said the head teacher) and have gravitated into a group for mutual protection. All 14/15 yo ~ all built like brick outhouses and all getting pushed around by kids half their size who don't have a whole brain cell between them. State education, even in Wales, is shite.
