Well I've away at uni/college and got back at the start of June. Erm I haven't been to see my grandparents because I'm scared of them I need an excuse for it being so long. Any idea's I can't use the job excuse .
you've been busy hanging out with friends, make a reference to one of them being a girl, they'll be so overjoyed by the fact that you could possibly be getting married that they'll forget the rest
it would work with my grandparents
it would work with my grandparents

Your grandparents aren't going to be there forever, savor the chance to be with them while you can.

Be honest.
Umm ... why? And, why lie to your grandparents?wah1188 wrote:

Have they abused you? If so, don't see them ...
Do you have oldfolksphobia? If so, see a counselor ...
Have you done something to them, and the issue isn't resolved? Then be honest, and go to them and try to get the issue resolved.
lol that your grandparents won't believe you've been having out with a girl.wah1188 wrote:

Probably cos they're jerks. I don't think he's actually scared of them, more like he can't be fucked dealing with their bullshit.
Erm no it's just that I'm scared of them having a go at me about not visiting them. I dunno I guess I don't have much to talk about them add that to the fact that my Cantonese is terribad.OrangeHound wrote:

Alright fuck it I'll tell them the truth I'm a cunt. I'm going Asda to buy them some doughnuts and creamcakes and shit.
Ummm...Flowers for your Grandma and maybe a couple beers to share with Grandpa? Doughnuts and creamcakes doesn't sound like an appropriate gift for grandparents.wah1188 wrote:

You have been busy trying to further your education. As a result, this will provide you a wealthy, prosperous, and fulfilling career that you will not regret 20 years before you retire. Tell them you don't want to be old and miserable like them.

Is there a problem with that if it saves him having his ears talked off about not visiting his grandparents? I can't see it being any less American with doughnuts and creamcakes.hiberNative wrote:

If it were my grandparents, it'd be some diabetic shit. Creamcakes would probably put my grandma in hospital.
And for the record...I'm Canadian, not American.
This fella knows the score.kptk92 wrote:

Tell the truth otherwise this time next year when you haven't seen them for 12 months you'll be thinking of another excuse. Explain in a non patronising way how you have your own life which is keeping you occupied. And remember......
A Grandad is for life not just for Christmas, I'll be passing this message on myself later this year.

My my grandparents are pretty healthy brought them a nice loaf, apples and some raspberry turnovers. They didn't accept it though because they said they have shit loads of food. My Grans exact words were "Look in the fridge if you don't believe me". They gave me money too which is gay because they absolutely won't let me not accept it. They weren't too pissed off they were pretty sound actually I'm probably going to get them something on holiday.ebug9 wrote:
