Have you ever just wanted to very, very politly smack the snot out of someone else kid?
Well all I can say is Im amazed this hasn't been done yet by my wonderous sister, who has the patience of a saint, mind you my sister taught me how to be devious so you can imagine that killing them would be kind!
Now it's not often I mention my nephew now is it..
Let's just say where they stay there are a few families with kids, now most are fine, some a little young to be playing with Connor but that's going off point.
There are 2 - one lives next door and well let's just say "BRAT!!!!" is too good a word for this boy! He acts like an idiot sometimes I mean acts like he's 4 or something you know the way kids act all stupid like someone's just clunked them upside the head, that's who he acts.. Now he's fine in SMALL doses BUT when he's "partner in crime" the little madam from the across the way is around it's 2 v 1 and you can guess who the one is, this PISSES connor off no end but he's learning to deal but he won't go out the front door even if they aren't there to play by himself which he used to do no problem.
This stresses him no end and in turn stresses my dear sister...
Now this is the fun part, even although his "mother n step dad" and her "mother and 'partner'" (more of that in a mo) know this may be going on they wanted my sister to chip in for a "trampoline" for them all to use, now she didn't go for it so they had to pay for it between the 2 of them ha ha ha £100 for an 8' x 8' with side netting etc, which connor has never went near (even although he could as it's outside).
Now on to the "mother n 'partner'" well all i have to say is I don't know which one of them is the more "butch" if you know what Im getting at.
Now all this anger connor has bottled up (I wish he wouldn't he's so like me and my sister is dangerous!) has to come out somewhere and it normally does his football teammates get it, in fact he had to appologise to his coaches for letting rip so to speak as well as one of the parents of the kids who he said something too, appologied twice - once there and once on the phone (his mother wasn't feeling great at the time)..
Uncle G to the rescue here...
Well yesterday was spent at my sisters fixing her broadband - darn freaking stupid USB DSL drivers and Windows 98se. My nephew kept asking me to go outside to play football which I wasn't going to do as I was busy but "We",my dear sister and I had a plan, I went how about you let me finish this and then we could erm "Go to McDonalds" then go to "the Glen", that's Pittencrief Park aka Dunfermline Glen, so we could play football there we'll imporvise goals as well ;) that worked gave sister some breathing space to do stuff and actually tired nephew out :D Kudos to Uncle G.
Ah that's it Rant over...
I'll post more when I feel like it :P
