Doing the ironing yesterday I let my mind wander and found myself thinking of the past and the time I put one over on an aunt. When we got engaged she told me that if I married him I would never have anything. At every family get together she would make caustic comments about us, which we both chose to ignore. Then 10 years after we married we were at yet another family gathering, we had just moved and this aunt asked when we were going to invite her to see our house – it was at that point I got my revenge, I asked which house she wanted to look at as we owned 3!! I would just say I am not the sort who plans a revenge but she was a deeply unpleasant person and I could not resist putting her in her place! Has anyone else waited years before getting revenge?
Not really, I don’t do revenge
31 Years. This was the culmination of an upbringing with an abusive parent, which is a very long and complicated story going back to when I was small. But the day eventually came when he finally realised what he did and the consequences that followed, which by my reckoning, was too late by over three decades.
After being in the Army for a long time really,
I decided to leave and make ago of live in civvi street,
Now being in the Army you do not just work together, But you very much live together and so when we gave that life style up we entered a world of people who’d done very little in their lives,
But wanted to know all about you and your past life,
Questions like "Why do you not have any children ? It’s not a proper marrage without kids,
And so on and so on,
We both learnt very quickly a lot of people liked to back stab one another and we never did believe in talking about people and we have kept that up all our lives,
