Good Morning Early Birds

[emmie]

morning, Saturday already and the weekend starts here. I hope you are as well as can be and that you have as good a day as possible. I have some chores to do later, washing and stuff, so exciting, and then sort out Christmas cards for posting, which won't take long and see what the rest of the day brings. Have you any thing planned for today?

he was 9, and was supposed to take me to school, i don't remember how i came to be lost, but mum always said what a fright it gave her.

I bet it did!

[emmie]

they were terrible to me being the only girl and the youngest, teased, and bullied, not good at all. My mother had no idea that it was so bad.

Two brothers? How much older is the other one?

[emmie]

three brothers, one is 72, one 71, one 49, so the eldest was 10. there is 4 and 5 years difference between me and my two elder brothers.

We've applied for the School just around the corner which is outstanding and highly recommended by the people we know who send their kids there. I don't think we'll actually find out until April if he's got a place there but it shouldn't be an issue. Some of our friends don't live near here but still send their kids there.

One 49? A typo, emmie?

Hope you're lucky, LCG.

[emmie]

no typo, he is my mums son with a different dad than mine, so half brother, but i have never referred to him that way. He hits the big 50 next year....

[naomi24]

Does he live in Sussex near the other brothers? Do you ALL get together at Christmas?

[emmie]

the two brothers live about half an hour drive from one another, strangely they don't see a lot of each other, but if i go down there we all try and get together. I think we will all be there to scatter mums ashes on the beach. J is the youngest as i said and works full time, while P the middle brother is retired. The eldest lives in the capital, though we don't see each other now. its complicated.
