Uncle Angus couldn’t believe the cheek of Dad turning up like that – he was the only one who seemed to understand what I thought about it. It is now something that we don’t discuss in the house – I hate family stuff that becomes undiscussable. Uncle Angus was well and feisty, it was a great laugh. We even did some studying together and he told me some of my grammar was a disgrace!! He kept coming out with these great ways of looking at things. He told me not to be so forceful with my points as it made me seem ignorant of the fact that all arguments had lots of different sides to them and even something that sounded outrageous had it’s own sort of validity. He is obviously right and I think that it is a good way to look at an exam question, but it did make me laugh coming from Uncle Angus who could argue a nun out of a convent if he put his mind to it.
