she used to, I think she quite enjoys the space now.

I’d say we’ve moved into a place now where we’re all thankful that we still have a family unit, however fractured and dysfunctional it might otherwise seem. Everything I am, both good and bad, comes from them in some way or other.

At a family gathering shortly after the birth of her first grandchild (not mine) she stood up and made a toast to the new addition to the family, Joshua.

The kids name is Rudy, and had been since his birthday about 4 weeks previous. There are no Joshuas or any other similar names in the family.

Everyone obviously pissed themselves laughing but she just pretended it hadn’t happened cos she’s never wrong.

Amazing.

This year at Christmas, my nan gave us a card.

Inside it read - “Merry Christmas to Meo and Partner”

I’ve been with him for about 3 years.

Partner!!

My wifes Aunt is extremely religious. When we were dating and living in sin every Xmas card would be to Mrs casinobay and partner.
Ever since we have been married it is Mrs casinobay and casinobay.

We’re very lucky to still have my mum with us and I’m thankful for that. She’s not the person she used to be but she’s still there, you can see it in flashes every now and again, and it’s equally heartwarming and heartbreaking to see.

On the plus side she’s developed a truly filthy laugh since her health issues. Few things make me happier than hearing that.

Shoutout to my Mam for being the most inspirational person in my life, with my Dad close behind her. If I didn’t have them I’d be lost.

As much as they are flawed and regularly piss me off, my family are pretty awesome and I probably don’t deserve all they have done for me considering I can seem to give all that much back.

I remember I was watching Gogglebox once and they were watching some tear-jerking documentary about a family who’d been through something bad. I think, I can’t remember the specifics. Was obviously very moving. I remember it went to Leon and June’s house and he was in tears and he just turned round to June, smiled and went “family’s everything to me”. Made me feel very sad because it’s not a sentiment I’ve ever been on the receiving end of, and one I’m probably going to be limited in my means to ever deliver. Must be a lovely thing to be in a family where someone feels that.

Love Leon. Genuinely felt very sad when he died.
