Re: What are you doing today ??
Early start today. Still at work after spending the day out of the office on a new case. Thought it was going to take up all week so I cancelled my free trackday. Turns out I'm not needed on Thursday. Oh well. I'm still taking the day off.

Trying to not kill the eldest child of our current visitors. Worst table manners I have ever seen, no excuse as far as I'm concerned......

No discipline with their kids, eating with their mouths open, talking while eating and grabbing food. I've never seen anything like it. One of my pet hates I'm afraid. I've resorted to beer now to calm me down.

Rightly or wrongly people will judge you on the behaviour of your animals and children, one of the lads my youngest started year 7 with is Korean, he was exactly as you describe Cookie, I couldn't look at him while he was eating, fwiw they only ever ate at ours that once.....

Re: What are you doing today ??
I've got misophonia, and sometimes have to leave the room when people make certain noises when they eat. Literally turns my stomach.
In fact, Sarah it doing it now with a biscuit.
It's your house Cookie, make them eat outside.

About to sleep, going onto nightshift and just landed on board so have to try and jam a few hours sleep into what's left of the day.
And then the fun begins

Thankfully they are only here for another day and I raised my concerns with the other half before they came. They are from her side of the family.Monty wrote:I've got misophonia, and sometimes have to leave the room when people make certain noises when they eat. Literally turns my stomach.

We are just useful because of where we are and they are on their way from the south of France home so it breaks up their journey. I've never met them before and they never contact us normally so I really didn't want them here. I think some people stay in holiday mode and think we are a hotel frankly. Most of the few visitors we get don't do that.
They won't be back, that's pretty much certain. I'll make sure of that.
