What do you think of this? My husband's colleague took his elderly parents out to France as thye want to live out there full time.We thought they'd come back with a small property in a quaint village. Instead they tell us they have decided to buy a large house with 6 bedrooms and land. Here's the best bit it's fitted throughout with marble floors.<BR><BR>I have visions of this elderly couple, the husband is not in the best of health, skidding around in this huge house on marble floors and struggling to take care of the land around the property. My husbands colleage is also buying a property out there and between them all they do not speak a word of French and have spent very little time in the country. Is it just me or would you be concerned about this scenario?

Gosh, I wonder if those mink seat covers for my Mercedes have arrived yet? Do you think I should call Mercedes Benz direct? But I don't speak a word of German! Should I be concerned with this, or should I really be focusing on having my maid scour that diamond studded bathtup spigot I just bought? Help!

Why are you concerned at all about your husband's friend's parents? <BR><BR>Sounds like they are quite adventureous.<BR>They will have a great time.<BR>Quite worring!

Buy a bag of gummy erasers and give them to your husband's colleague. Tell him to glue them to the bottom of his parents' shoes.<BR><BR>You are an extraordinary person to take such a deep interest in people with three degrees of separation.

For the life of me, I can't figure out why this is any of your business. Are you afraid your husband's partner is bilking the company, or just concerned because they seem to be able to enjoy the share they've earned more than what you have? Jealousy is a terrible thing.

1-make sure that they invite you every weekend.<BR>2- what do you care what these people do?

You people are so mean. This is so obviously Buzzy's business. What if one of the parents breaks a leg and the colleague has to go to France to take care of the parent, leaving Buzzy's husband stuck with all the work at the office? Or what if Buzzy's colleague, unable to speak French, is spurned by the locals, spirals downwards into deep depression, and illegally diverts all of the company's resources to pay for a long stay in a psychiatric facility? Buzzy is only being prudent.

Buzzy is a bizzy body.

I think Buzzy's a troll! (And not a very good one, at that!)
