WindSurfing Blog

Fraggle asked:


okay, so my mother, father, grandfather and i are supposed to be driving up to the north of england for a week to do some surfing(just me and mum, dad has M.E arthiritis and grandad’s 87), then to scotland for scuba diving. this in itself is HELL as my grandad just moans all the time and we have to be ‘considerate’ (meaning not have any fun), my dad is useless and horrible and will be moving out at the end of august, and my mum is a neurotic emotional basketcase who can nag for britain.
here is my dilemma.
i REALLY do NOT want to live for two weeks, in a shack on the beach, then a campervan, with them.
plus i dislike scuba diving strongly. the same goes for surfing and especially windsurfing. my mum never asked me if i wanted to go, but she’s booked me in for scuba diving and everything.
thing is, i’ve asked and asked not to go, as i’m almost 17 and can fend for myself at home for 2 weeks easily. and my mother’s nagging and pestering will drive me round the bend. it has done on all the rest of the holidays i’ve been on. she nags, we fall out, i want to go home.
my grandad just doesn’t do/say much. but i never talk to him, even though he lives with us. but i’ve got to be quiet, and not play my music loud, in case he can hear it. IT DRIVES ME MAD!
and dad is useless and uncaring and makes everyone else mad.
and i won’t even get started on my mum. we’re talking straightjacket.
so, what i guess i’m asking, is:
is there any way to avoid going on holiday with them without killing/maiming anyone, without stopping them going on holiday(if they didn’t go, they’d guilt trip me to death), or without causing lasting emotional harm, breaking the car, etc…basically i just want to stay at home, but i can’t think of a way.
can anyone help me?

and before anyone says, no i am not spoilt at all. i’ve learnt from experience that our family holidays, or any holidays involving my mother, ALWAYS go to pot, and we always come back having fallen out. you would not believe the woman!

HELP ME!

i went on a sleepover last night and as usual am a bit cranky today. I was in town with my mum and dad and i didn’t want anything to eat she got mad at my behavior and told me to go home with dad i accepted that statement and was fine. She wanted me to try on some uniforms but i said; ‘i thought you didn’t want me to be with you’ she go SO mad on the way to the car she thumped me on the shoulder and said to me and dad; you have both ruined my day. She said this to dad as well because he refused to bring me to windsurfing lesson because that would mean going half hour home and half hour back. i think mum was crying. I didn’t mean it i don’t know what to do should i write a sorry card?

I **** that people go on at me becuase my family seem rich, i dont think we are but my parents dont talk to me or my brother about money. I live in a big house which is 3 stories high but it has 24 rooms in the house. My family have 3 cars (my mums car my dads car and my brothers car) there are all very nice cars. We have 3 landrovers (my dad has 2, he made one and i also have one because to drive one you have to be 14 or over and i am 15) my parents own a business which has 18 vans and 2 cars. I have never been at home on a weekend (actully i probly was when i was born) because i race windsurfing and have to go away every weekend otherwise i would lose the competition.

My question is do you think that im rich ? and how can i tell people that im not? i do act like a snob and im ok with that but i dont want people thinking that im rich and can afford anything. lol

And i have basically everything… in my bedroom i have a 50 inch telly so when i have a sleepover its like a cinema
i have 3 laptops, all of which are apple, i have 4 phones one is the iphone bla bla bla
To some of the questions - i go to church around christmas and easter and sometimes i help my nan out because she is incharge of the flowers at her local church.

And also i see my nan and gramps every other day, i have a sunday meal with ALL my family ( aunts and uncles and everyone) and we are all very healthy !!!
