Darling father is due to visit tomorrow. This entails a certain amount of panic on my part. However it is only Friday to Monday, so I should be able to cope.
Darling father is used to well regulated clean houses. This is not clean and is not well regulated. This household lurches from crisis to crisis. He is used to autonomy, but of course here the house rather revolves around little bear.
And, as always, darling father only seems to visit when it is that time of the month, when I am never at my best.
He will 'get lost' on the way and have to call in to various pubs for directions. He will drink vast quantities of whisky, watch the football at a ridiculous volume and read the Daily Mail. He will wander off to put his lottery on and accidentally stray into a local pub. Where he will have to have a drink, because it's polite.
Evil cat lets him cuddle her! Most people need plasters at the very least.
As for little bear, he will be plied with unsuitable sweets, unsuitable toys and lots of love. Any attempt at discipline and darling father will cry, 'he's only a baby!'
Dear heart will spend a lot of time on his computer.
I may not be on much over the weekend.

Your darling father sounds wonderful. Every child should have a grandfather like that. Oh, and hes not visiting the house, he is visiting his family who live there and their evil cat who likes him !!
Enjoy his stay and try not to worry

Thank you. I do get myself all in a tizz.
Darling father will, of course, have the time of his life. He adores little bear, and it is mutual. There is an age gap of 75 years, but they are kindred spirits and partners in crime.
I will keep updating on the visit, which I am sure will be worth an entry or two lol. WS
