I saw a golden eagle today
I said as much on my facebook status which has prompted a reply from my brother saying nothing but "sex tourist!"

This is the first communication I have had from him in the two weeks since he found out I'd got engaged.

What a cunt eh?

For background, he is far more of a smug cunt than me.

Hahaha
I don't understand how seeing a golden eagle relates to sex tourism, unles it's some deviant sexual practice I haven't heard of.

the actual status was
"saw a golden eagle today. first animal I've seen while on holiday that wasn't a sheep or a sheep dog"

I'm still none the wiser.

Cruising for sheep maybe?
But yeah, that's rather cunty!

it was more the fact that I hadn't heard a peep from him regarding some fairly significant news

That is inexcusable I would have said
And congratulations by the way!

I'm not entirely surprised by it
nor am I particularly annoyed. more curious. which is my usual state.

thanks :-)

My brother's first response was 'Twat!'
But I was 18 and wouldn't be told it was an obviously ridiculous move.

that's probably fair enough then
:-)

I was surprised at how surprised people have been. We've been together 6 years, have a house etc...

Wise beyond his years that boy.
Then it's a natural progression. Maybe they all thought you'd just cohabit forever.

I was tempted to reply with that
but I thought I'd do the mature thing and ignore his messages and calls (if and when they arrive)
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Fri 7 May 2010, 19:06, Reply)

how's that mature? You'd just look like a
BUS WANKER!
( Lisette von Falcon, Fri 7 May 2010, 19:16, Reply)

it's not at all mature
I should have used the sarcasm mark

Surely you mean
he is far more of a smug cunt than I.
