Oh no. That doesn't work with the chronically late who are on a power
trip. On that European trip the only problem I had with my other
brother and SiL was that they indulged the bitch in law too much. Even
they got fed up and left that night. They were furious when they heard
about her account about what*we* had done to her, as if we had been the
ones who had done something wrong. I felt sorry for them because we
were travelling in Germany and France and I know enough French and
German to get by, but none of them could. Never the less, once we
finished the business we were there for, and after I saw what was going
on, I should have just headed off on my own for a week and a half and
met them at the airport for the trip home.
