Expected nothing less - tried this too - unfortuantely, they just left me, drooling in the corner of the room...I heard comments such as - "what a wonderful husband you have, he never complains, is always on time with his insulin shots, and doesn't eat too much - but didn't you say he was potty trained??"

to be, or not to be, what was the question?

Sooooooo - they arrived ... ... ... all SIX of them ... ... ... Including myself, I've now got ELEVEN people in my flat for the next few weeks!

That's it, I'm moving to Inner Monglolia where I plan to raise grasshoppers!!!

SB - -perhaps....but although I may seem to be a massochist, I'm not that much of one - I think it'd work better for herding the peeps around my flat.

Think it's a Cattle Prod, EB. I'm looking for a manufacturer who can disguise it as a brolly. Ideal for the slow moving cattle in HK. Now, nobody go pinching my idea, ok!

just out of curiosity ...have you spoken openly with your wife about how you feel towards the invasion ??? its one thing to get on with the inlaws but when one of the spouses feels like its an invasion then sometimes it needs to be discussed and maybe diluted.............

darren rudd is and never was a sinophile
but the reports were a smoggy mistake

Puyi - discussed - its a one way street on this point! Even ate onions and inhaled helium before I gave my pleading monologue.

Lets just call it a cultural difference - English Vs Philippine culture. Before it gets posted by someone else it's something like this:

Culture vs no culture

not the most pleasant of thoughts - but I suppose I am in a way! Anyhow, best make the most of the situation - I can now enjoy long evenings of getting pished - for at least 2 weeks anyhow.
