an old uncle
i had an old uncle who died a few years back in his 90's, he was a cracker. ooh where to start.
he was prodestant and married a catholic, was told by the priest that any child would have to be brought up catholic and so never had any children, when my mum asked my aunt ( who was a lovely person) why they never any sprogs she said she never had the option, reading between the line i assume the always used johnnies. he also advised mt father not to marry my mother cos of the cath/prod thing. my mother(catholic) ended up being the one who cooked , cleaned bed washed and all that jazz for him for the last few years of his life. He got a letter for a old dear who stayed in the flats upstairs from him by mistake, thats for that "BITCH" upstairs he said with a fair amount of venom. my mother enquired whys she a bitch and he had no answer cos he'd never met her , knew nothing about her etc etc he was just a twisted old git. he had a good word for nobody, he was illegitimate too in the days when it carried a social stigma and i think he carried a load of baggage about that.

apologies for distance
