they're driving me round the bend
firstly, my mother in law practically lives round at our house at the moment. ok i knew she was gonna be round more often seeing her new granddaughter but she's 2 and a half months old now and still the mother in law is round here EVERY evening for hours on end, generally getting in the way and annoying me
secondly my father in law goes through spells where he needs to borrow money, full of promises to pay it all back next month when he has a load of money coming in. fair enough he always pays me back but it ALWAYS takes months of getting a bit here and a bit there. he also borrows stuff from us - like my big bottle of autoglym car shampoo the other day, he used literally HALF the bloody bottle he also borrows my lawnmower but when he brings it back he just leaves it in the back garden in the rain rather than put it back in the shed where he got it from.
the pair of them are proper clumsy sods too - every single time they're round they manage to spill something on the carpet, bring a load of mud in on their shoes or break something
now today was the final straw - they took our elder daughter out for the afternoon and asked if they could borrow my camera to take some snaps as they don't own a decent camera. i reluctantly let them, now lo and behold i've just gone to take a piccie myself and they've BROKEN MY BLOODY CAMERA :rant: :rant: they didn't say anything but it's got a huge crack in the bodywork and the flash mechanism is permanently stuck open, and a big scuff on the side. it's obviously been dropped and when i rung them up she said 'yeah i dropped my handbag but didn't realise the camera was damaged'. she's offered to get it repaired/replaced but its not the point - the entire family has the reverse midas touch, everything they touch turns to **** i sooooo want to move away from this area to get away from them but mrs al's from here and won't move
one day i'll have my revenge though mwahahaha!!!
