Do you take after your mother or father?

I know someone here takes after her newly reunited father to a tee

I'm like my mother. I enjoy goading idiots, like a cat playing with a mouse.

Thanks Ma.

I'm a bit like both of them.....I get my tenacity from my dad and my wit from my Ma (although I'm still only an apprentice wit).

My Mum.

We were sat at the table together about an hour ago, twiddling our hair and working on a sudoku puzzle with Maddie (so wonder who she takes after) and laughing at my Dad's jokes.

I too take after both parents.

My ability to be extremely humble I acquired from my Mother, and my general feelings of superiority over all other life forms I inherited from my Father. Makes for one hell of an internal struggle!!

That is just sooooooo true.......I will have to tell her that one, she will laugh her socks off.

I am convinced I'm turning into my mother as I get older. I hear myself saying things she used to say.

Margaret Pilkington · 17-06-2007, 20:15

Yes Willow, me too....and I find it really really scary......I'm even starting to look like her too

Watching Siobhan she definately gets some bit from both of us and then some more from grandmas and granddads

e.g. in La veranda last weeked, she scoffed her pizza, had a cartload of icecream, lifted the glass bowl and drained it, put it down, licked her lips and said "MORE!!!"

Her granddad to a tee!!!!(He'd have been proud as punch!)

Other things she does are me all over again, then theres bits of Julie that stick out like you'd not believe.

(She is an Entwistle though, stubborn as owt!)

I have so many traits from both of my parents it would take all night to list them. I'll admit to the good ones and gloss over the not so good.
