Me, part 673 *TRIGGERS*

[Jaquaia]

It annoyed him to the extent he took his book downstairs with him when we went down for tea and sat reading. He doesn't like people touching his books as some of them aren't cheap and can be very difficult to replace.

I've told her again how rude she was but I don't think it will make a difference.

[Suzi]

I cannot understand why she thinks it's OK to speak to you both like that?
My kids don't have partners over and I knock to go into their rooms when it's just them in there... However, my Mum was the same as yours....

[Jaquaia]

She claims she was just joking with him. Don't think she'll do that again as I pointed out that the book he was reading last night is currently £52 on Amazon and that's second hand. Plus he had a magazine insert from the 50's with him on modelling. That would be nigh on impossible to replace. I just give up half the time as it never makes a difference. I've said a few times about just walking in, she took offence, behaved like a dick and went back to how it was in time. It's usually a quick knock and walk in.

I always knock on Aisling's door before I go in. It's only fair.

[Mira]

I must say that is rude. I believe that its up to you and J how you want to spend time. As its different and personal for everybody in a different way. I believe firmly in being respectful of people and propperty. So this would get me upset.

[Jaquaia]

I've even pointed out that my room is the only space I have that's mine.

[Paula]

It sounds extreme, but have you considered putting a lock on it?

[Jaquaia]

My parents would never allow it and it's still their house.

[Paula]

But it’s also your home ...

[OldMike]

Your room is your only personal space and if your mum insists on just waltzing in when she feels like it a lock may be the only answer.
