A Family Reunion
Humor when family gets together45 total reviews
Comment from Beck Fenton
What a great bunch of tales! My family reunions were fun, but yours seems to be exhilarating! And intoxicating! I'm surprised that everyone got along when aided by so much alcohol. Can you tell me the secret to that?
Thanks for writing this. I enjoyed it very much.

Beck, you asked a really good question. I don't know the answer, it has been a fun group to part of all these years. Thank you for reading, Terry.

Interesting family dynamics and contests - all very memorable and fun to look back on. You wrote well about all the details of each one, and with fine humour. Well done.

Just loved this, they say that variety is the spice of life, and you might have bought your own variety store, I suppose when we marry, we double out relations sometimes, but you did it with good grace, well done, blessings Roy

Comment from Fleedleflump
This is a lovely set of reminiscences and the things you've taken from them. Love the catfish story the best - how we assume people know what they're doing but then find they'll try anything once, lol. You tell these well, with a good mix of fun and nostalgia.

One note as I was reading:
'Contrary to what you may think. The winner was the one who drank the least.' - this feels like it should be one sentences, with a comma instead of a full stop.

Hi Terry,
When I married Zoe in 1974, I also married her family. - I never made this mistake. I never married the wife's family. In fact, we moved to a different country... They used to make everything a competition and it annoyed the hell out of me. lol
can stab you and burn like hades. - Hades should probably be capitalised here.
