Just what we need in the family....

Discovered today that Dad’s ‘Lady Friend’ is a vegetarian. Bloody attention seeker, I grumbled when April (my sister) told me. To her credit, there was a full minutes silence before she said ‘Now I’m really not trying to start an argument, but were you looking for attention when you were a vegetarian?’

Bloody family. Minds like steel traps.

I told her that, given the fact that I was 22 years old at the time, most of the things that I did around then were attention seeking one way or the other, and maybe the fact that LadyFriend is in her 40’s (dear god I assume she’s in her 40.s….) maybe there is a more pure and selfless motive to her vegetarianism.
How right I was….
Not only is she a reincarnation-istic Buddhist tye person, she also seems to be into runes, iridology, psychics, and by the sounds of it, every other hippy-dippy, airy-fairy alternative new age clap trap snake oil treatment that’s been dreampt up by some crazy-eyed whacko on acid.
Well, she’s a vegetarian, by any rate. I’ve got to confirm the rest. Although I have it on good authority that the rune bit is true…
