EW have never even let me join!

Perhaps they sussed my intention of posting "get a ****** life" almost daily wasn't in the spirit...

I got banned from a baby forum in the uk for a harmless sarcastic riposte about babies and flying. You just KNOW the mums who
complained are the ones you want to kill when you meet them at school/baby group etc.

Welcome from another newbie(ish).

Now for the questions: my maid is asking for more that three hours off a week/where can I get a bodywrap in Jumeira/what can I cook for dinner tonight/is my car-house-handbag big enough/why do people make a fuss of my kids when we're out, can't they detest them like northern Europeans? Please, help me...

Now for the questions:

my maid is asking for more that three hours off a week - As long as the 3 hours are between midnight and 5am, not a problem...

where can I get a bodywrap in Jumeira - OMG!! Bodywrap's are soooo last year, dahling. Let me give you the name of my fave fish foot massage spa...

what can I cook for dinner tonight - Why have a dog and bark, cooking is your maids responsibility and, if you don't like it, you are well within your rights to deduct the cost of the ingredients from the 3 figure stipend you pay her..

is my car-house-handbag big enough - Never, dahling....

why do people make a fuss of my kids when we're out, can't they detest them like northern Europeans - Oh, but they do, but only because they are insanely jealous of their 'free spirits' and joie-de-vivre.. And until such time as they make it a crime, let them continue to treat the shop assistants like 3rd class citizens, party till 4am and rightly harangue the taxi driver for not understanding their slightly slurred speech ...

Please, help me... - Its not a problem...

I don't mind being called a misfit, but I violently refute any allegation that I'm a rufgee.

I'm a member of EW, never been banned, never used those cringeworthy abbreviations, never really post that much, bit boring really, just like I am on here, and same username.

I've thought of loads for my man, but the one that sticks is LC, especially in this "we're moving abroad AND doing a three week camping trip to France in less than two months, the house is a shanty town and I've got unatested documents coming out of my jacksy" time period.
