Is yours as useless as mine, i may as well not have one :evil:

Text him this morning to remind him to pick us up from Coventry as he said he would a few weeks ago.

He called back to say that he didnt realise it was coventry and now he's not going to be able to do it because he says '' I wont be able to get from Coventry airport to drop you off and then be in Leicester for 7.45''

Our flights comes in at 03.55 :roll: :evil: :evil: :evil:

Now we have to pay £53.80 :roll: :evil: :evil:

USELESS EXCUSE OF A MAN :evil: :evil: :evil:
 
Mambo,

I don't want to be offensive, but I find quite surprising people talking that bad about their parents.
If I'm not wrong you are asking him to do you a favour, so in my opinion when you ask for a favour you should accept a NO, I CAN'T

You are lucky, your dad may be useless but at least you have dad

Tis very true - mine died 3 years ago and I would give anything to have him back :cry:
 
mine went to the shop to get me some sweets 20 years ago and never came back. Useless tw@. I really wanted those flying saucers.



That was a major case of sarcasm there.

My old man hasn't been around for 20 years. Needed him many times. Count yerself lucky mambo. And a man who doesn't pander to every whim. Sounds like a good bloke
 
Without trying to be overly serious I think the original comments have to be taken in context.

I lost my Dad earlier this year and seem to feel the loss more each day. Dozens of times every day I reach for the phone to tell him / ask him something and then realise I can't.

But while he was alive I was the first to ask for stuff them rant and rave like a drama queen when he woudln't or couldn't help.

However, he was a great bloke and he was wonderful to me and I miss him loads.

However, in fairness Mambos dad me be a complete c*nt ! Who are we to know any different !
 
I appreciate your viewpoint . . .

I may as well not have one though, he's been leaving my mom in debt and coming and going all my life, he wasnt even present at my birth. The last time he left my mom he walked out and didnt tell her that she was 2 days from being evicted from her house with my then 3 yr old brother because he hadnt been paying the rent.

He's never been there for me or bothered with me so i can honestly say that i may as well not have him :evil:

Thank you Terrier, he is exactly that.

If i had a nice loving, caring dad then i would be upset if i lost him too but the way my dad is he may as well not even be here :evil: :cry:
 
I wish my daddy was still alive to take me to the airport - we have to get to heathrow so I think its either the bus or about 3 trains :cry:
 
I think it's been taken a bit out of context really. At the moment my Dad is ill with cancer so I would never call him useless etc, but a year or so ago maybe I would have got mad over the same thing?

Maybe, sandi,

But as I said in my message, I don't understand people talking bad about their parents. Probably I had a too conservative education re this subject but this is how I feel.

And I insist, I didn't mean to be offensive, it's just my point of view :D

You didn't sound offensive at all sil.
 
Your not being Offensive at all Sil, everyone is entitled to their opinion and obvisouly your dad was a nice man who supported you with everything no doubt.

I just wish that there was more nice dads about :?

I guess im just getting at the fact that all my life he's been letting me down and not done the things that normal dads would do and it really hurts that ive not had that father figure in my life - at all :cry:
 
I'd agree - we all have different dads and obviously some are nice and some unfortunately aren't so nice. I hope you get to the airport ok Mamb - you never know your dad may surprise you and help you out :)

On the subject of 3 girls - I wouldn't dare after watching supernanny for the past couple of weeks!! I couldn't believe this week when the mother called her daughter an a-hole!!

Smack them, smack them hard :lol: :lol:

Thats a shame young Mambs and I respect your opinion in that case
 
awww *hugs* mambs, sorry he's let you down again, if I was your dad (which I can be) I would take you to the airport, although its a bit short notice to become a dad and do an airport run all in one day :? :lol: ;)
