So the family are coming to visit on Tuesday. Can't wait. My dad, bless him, isn't coming because he doesn't like to use any form of transport other than his car. He likes being in control, I guess. Anyway, that just leaves my mum, brother and nan. My brother is staying on the couch in my living room, while the other two are staying in a hotel at the top of the street. I'm looking forward to seeingthem, obviously, but I'm a bit worried about acting like a tour guide for three generations of my family. What possible activities can you do that a miserably-hormonal 14 year old and a feisty septegenarian will enjoy? Factor in a well-meaning but over-bearing mother and you have a recipe for a National Lampoon-esque week of humourless boredom. Wish me luck, please.
Who knows, we might all have a great time. The family get on really well with my girlfriend so hopefully I'll be able to offload - I mean share - the responsibility. The plans so far involve the zoo and the oceanarium for some wholesome family fun, the beach for a spot of sightseeing and picture opportunities and several good restaurants which, to be honest, are more for my benefit.
The good news is that my mum is bringing me a PSP! Due to some undoubtedly dubious dealings, my mum has found herself holding ten brand new PSP games that fell off the back of a metaphorical lorry. Thus, she has decided that it is worth paying for a PSP console for me. Wahoo!
