Oh, her Dad is the problem, I'm sure, he is really obnoxious.
He doesn't appear to be interested in his kids at all. Christine used to work with Karen's mother Coraline at the bank before she got the job at Renualt. Christine rescued Karen when she came in one day in tears because her boyfriend had dumped her and asked her to move out of the flat they shared because he had a job in Canada.
Coraline pointed out she wouldn't be welcome back home because her dad had turned her room into his computer room.
She had to go home eventually and her father moved his 'room' into a space he created in the short L of their open plan house.
We have all called at her house and had him answer the door. He looks at you totally blank. You ask for Karen and he grunts and shuts the door!
I went over to collect her to stay at our house over night when Christine's friend Ellen was visiting from Norway.
Karen let me in and her mother asked in to sit down and asked if I had time for a coffee and wanted to talk about Christine. He was channel hopping on this huge TV he had just bought, so he just kept pushing up the sound, so it was impossible to chat.
When Karen said we ought to make a move and said goodnight to her parents he ignored her, but her mother came and waved from the door.
Mark thought it odd, he never questioned why Mark would call for her and Philip gets a response now (after 2 years) 'You taking her out on that bike?'
when he is in full kit and carrying a helmet for Karen in his hand.
'You going somewhere in that car?'
When he isn't.
Philip never removes his helmet when he calls and always give the biggest grin when her dad answers the door, just to pee him off, but he never ever says, 'Hello Philip'.
I wonder what he is like at work. He is in Technical support for BT (British Telecom)
