Oh the sarcastic and selfish I totally get. We were saying the other day how nasty my mother was getting. Just saying vile stuff. TBH I am not letting my eldest’s partner meet her…my mother has got horribly racist.
I don’t do red letter days either. You have to be on your best behaviour which ramps up the pressure. But August is a long day off to be getting worked up already, it’s 5 months off. Half a year nearly. File it away again ‘in the future’ because that’s where it still is. There’s an awful lot of water got to go under the bridge before that gets anywhere near.
Luckily neither of my sons show any inclination whatsoever to get married despite having serious partners.
