Kids and so on

My sister-in-law, her hubby and 2 kids are down for the week. They go back to Scotland wednesday morning. Its always a tough week when they are down. I generally end up having at least one texting session with her while she's down. Sometiems its to do with how bad her hubby is at times, and this time its do with the fact that her mum is feeling down a bit and she thinks she's down something to piss her off. I said it was probably to do with the kids being around and other such things and the fact that she doesn't want to step in and discipline the kids because she isn't the mum. But its hard seeing your daughter and son-in=law not really doing alot to stop them messing around. Mum was joking that she'd phone my mum for the wooden spoon. I can't imagine the spoon being used on the kids but it might sort them out. They run riot every evening they are here and probably at home but here just seems different.

I just never know how to put politely what i wanna say but there's not alot i can do. Its up to her what she thinks and how she takes it.

Oh well. We're spending some time tomorrow just the two of us hopefully, so we might be able to haave a proper talk then
