I find it funny that now in my college you can learn "brazilian" and not "Portuguese" that it's the actual name of the language.
There's another Portuguese on MoFo!!! Watch out USA, Portugal is taking over! XD

My best mate's adopted and he's always saying how he'd like to track down his natural parents but won't do anything while his adoptive ones are still alive.

He thinks it's pretty strange when I tell him that I've shut my own father out of my life.

I have my reasons.

haha! do you know where he lives? Do the old fashioned thing and write him a letter and include your phone number. If you get no reply, then you know how things stand. At least you've given him a chance and it's less embarrassing than face to face.

My father was married before he married my mother, obviously so. He also had a bitch. Oh, I'm sorry, a daughter. She never liked us, just because, so when my older sister was a baby, she dropped her on purpose. No damage was done, although my mother was ready to do some damage to her. She was kicked out, and not allowed back. I've never even seen her, and I've never wanted to.
Yeah Tatty, do it. I love my big brother. He is 15 years older than me, and 6'3", to my 5'4". He is most definitely my big brother.
However you do it Tatty, do it. I bet he'll be made up he's got a big brother like you,
The more I think about it, the more I think it mightn't be fair on the lad. I'm not even 100% certain he knows I exist.

Maybe an exploratory run is called for to see if I have the bottle.
