The problem of always being the baby
« on: September 09, 2010, 11:58:35 AM »
Right. I have two sisters. One is 17 years older than me, the other is 8 and a half years older than me. I am now 55. SInce all this moving house business has kicked in I get constant calls "advising" me what I should do. They mean well, I know, however it is pissing me off. One sis called 4 times yesterday with advice about shopping, leccy and gas, council tax and god knows what else. I KNOW WHAT TO DO!!  Each time I call one of them, wrongly, for a chat I get more "helpful advice", most of which suggests that I am a 16 year old ignoramus.

Any other family babies here?

I too am the 'baby' of the family. I have a brother who is five years older than me and a sister who is three years older than me.

My brother is a completely different planet, lives in Canada, preaches at me once or twice a year. Several years ago he found Ganesha amongst other Gods and Goddesses.
He forced his religion and vegetarianism onto his teenage son and is now having difficulties coming to terms with the fact that said son is now the teenage father of an illegitimate child. eveilgrin:

My sister is a bit of a controller and following a family lunch on Sunday sent me an email, not saying how lovely it had been to see us but telling me just how ill I looked and had I not better tell her exactly what was going on with my specialist etc.... I was not impressed. evil:

I have always thought that the worst thing about drowning was having to call 'help!' You must look such a fool. It's put me against drowning.
