Re: What have you just bought?

Thanks nash it is very difficult to explain especially when the wee one was laughing and joking with his Grandad just last Sunday. His Aunt (hubby's sister) keeps making unnecessary nasty comments towards myself which has not went unnoticed with the family and my boy's but now is not the time to say anything as she is also grieving for the loss of her father. I would have thought that she would have had more respect in regards to the situation but no still her usual stuff spouting out her mouth which added more distress to both myself and my children and I decided to do my usual and ignore her which I think is the best option but maybe next month it will be needed to say something as her comments are hurtful to my boy's. I will just need to wait and see if she continues to upset them then that's a no no in my book do and say what you want to me but please don't upset my children, but right now my focus is on my hubby and children and making sure my Mother in Law is supported at this sad time, 59 years they were married it's a long time but no time is good to lose your partner whatever your age or time spent together.

Re: What have you just bought?

Hi Weenie. Terrible when you have a loudmouth and trouble maker in the family. Your day will come when you can say How you feel, as you say your children come first and you do not like them getting hurt. Bid your time and you will know exactly what to say to shut her up, Take Care

Re: What have you just bought?

Thanks nash I will more than likely say if you have no respect for me or yourself then please have some for your brother you know my husband as it's him you hurt not me as you mean nothing to me so please put your brain in gear before your mouth next time you speak to me. I admit I have been tempted to say this in the past and I know it's going to be said to her soon and she will be shocked as usually I smile and walk away she see's this as weakness whereas I see this as strength but enough is enough now. Naturally this will not be said to her in the near future but it will be said I suspect in the summer months when we get together for family bbq at each others. I will just make sure it's said at mine.

Their is always one in every family I suppose.


Just bought the wee one a new blue shirt & blue chino's for the funeral as his Grandad requested for the family not to wear black and celebrate his life and not be sad as he had a good life.

Re: What have you just bought?

Of course nash I have had 30+ years of preparation and rehearsed it many times over the years in my head. My other sister in law (who also has been on the receiving end of her tongue) said that hubby's sister could cause a fight in a empty room well the trouble with that is now she just may receive echo from wee quiet weenie who usually wouldn't say boo to a goose.

Re: What have you just bought?

Bought the bits to put a new system together this weekend: Based on Core i7 6700 + GTX970. Design objective was to push some decent performance but keep the power draw down.

Re: What have you just bought?

A WD 2TB internal hard disk to replace my failing WD network drive, i will then urgently back up all the precious photos, so i will eventually have 2 local hard disk copies and atleast 1 in the cloud.

Cigarettes in ASDA. Despite the budget increase they have gone down in price.

Re: What have you just bought?

Transcend DrivePro 220.

Similar price to Amazon, but the Argos one gives you a suction mount rather than the Stick on mount.

I also bought the 64GB Extreme MicroSD, which will allow 9 hours of 1080HD recording/
