I gather that people don’t like her… I like her more now that she’s old. - It helps that Mum is literally the only place I can run to if shit hits the fan. Serious. As if Stephen or Michelle would let me crash at theirs… no way. And the rest of you don’t even merit a mention because let’s face it, I had to win everyone over from the starting point of ‘fuck Michael’ that was everyone’s attitude. 2 years later, and clearly my shit works. - And I defended my twin, because of course I would. As for talking ‘abuse’ - well, I guess from the outside it may have seemed that way between Stephen and me. So, if I gather correctly, your plan is basically to yank me out of my rut and move me to where you live. 👍 - And the point I’d make is that my pissy attitude was a reflection of what I saw.
