 My younger brother comes finally around for me to sign some paperwork for my late dad's Solicitor.
He was trying to stick up for our late's dad's golddigging girlfriend.
He failed...
Here is a list of things I reminded him of things she did:
  1. Talked my dad into putting down his dog.
  2. Tried to get my dad to put down a perfect healthy cat, we rehomed her in the end.
  3. Didn't want my dad staying at hers, due to his frame marking her white carpet when he came out of hospital.
  4. Went to my younger brother's wedding.
  5. Didn't turn up at my dad's sister's funeral.
  6. As soon as out of dad's hearing range, slagged off him and us etc
  7. Wearing a "Poor Me" badge at every opportunity. 
  8. Returned my birthday present I bought her.
  9. Moaning her diamonds earrings for her Birthday my dad had bought her, was late arriving...
  10. Lots more.....
