Yes, F is very angry. More with the fact that he feels his brother could have said something before now (but they don’t really get on very well). Also, last year F suggested spending some money on doing the place up but his brother said no. Now, when his brother came round he suggests spending some money on it! :-) I’m glad I wasn’t there, really. Anyway, F told me last night that he will insist that when we go down at weekends a) his brother must move to his parents’ house and b) the place be as clean and tidy as F would like (which is a tall order in itself).

No, apparently, not :-D although I think that is because they would probably have shouting matches every time (mainly about how his brother hadn’t cleaned the place properly – whereas, if his brother is not there, F can complain bitterly about him not cleaning and then spend the first few hours cleaning). F is obsessed. Apparently his brother is not. I guess F must love me quite a lot to stay at my flat and not complain about it not being perfectly clean!

Of course F. is angry.

Can’t you share the house with his brother?

I will. Thanks, Pietro.

Sometimes I wanted to go, on my own or with D. or with friends, but was impossible.
Everytime she told me that if I tell her before she will leave…for the weekend, but her voice, behaviour etc. says she’s upset. SHE!
You have to resist. Tell F. that it is not worth to destroy his liver for that. You may find some other solution.
Rufus: give him a scratch behind the ears. I will not say anything more.

Nice to see you – it was unexpected but a lovely surprise :-)

Yes, no easy resolve but it’s not exactly dead and buried yet. We shall see.

Yes, poor Rufus. Still, at his time of life there always seems to be something. He seems to be hanging on though. I’m sure he will appreciate your love.

Sounds very complicated with no easy resolve. AND I feel horrid about Rufus, poor baby. Lots of love coming his way.
Love to you always
Gail
peace…..
