[InOne]

Cousins, Aunts, Uncles, second cousins etc. Do you see them often? Is your house full of relatives popping in here and there? I've got a massive family but don't see too many of them. I'm close to probably three of my cousins an Uncle and an Aunt. But even then I don't see them all the time. I'm glad of that though really, I much prefer the small family unit and just seeing my cousins whenever for a drink and that.

Only a tiny bit, they all live in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire and I only see them once a year if that

[King Gizzard]

[GypsyGoth]

See some of them around the likes of xmas time. I don't feel close to any of them.

You love Yorkshire really You always used to rave about Whitby

[Ninastar]

not very

I've always lived in different places to them

[joeysteele]

Seen much less oft hem since going to Uni but at Christmas and Easter I try to catch up with as many of them as I can.
They don't interfere or greatly influence my life now but I do still take notice of them a lot and even sometimes ask for their input to things in my life.

[Benjamin]

I don't even speak to my mother or sisters, not spoken to my mother in about 5 years.

[Smithy]

See my grandparents and 3 of my cousins frequently, dont speak to anyone else on my dads side and everyone on my mums side lives all over the country

[King Gizzard]

I do love a bit of Whitby, Flamborough, Filey yes

[Niall]

Quite a lot really. Well my Dad's side more so than my Mum's seeing as I live with him.

I have a huge family anyway (I have like 6 aunts/uncles on each side, don't even ask how many cousins I have omfg) so we all like to keep in touch. I'd hate having a small family.

[King Gizzard]

Lincolnshire must be the most dull place on earth though

[Livia]

I live far enough away from the buggers now that I don't have them in my life all the time. My parents live in the next cottage though, so I see them every day, which is lovely.

[Princess]

None of my family live close enough, we're close enough though, see them at least every few months at various family things, well my mum's side anyways. We only really see my dad's side at weddings and things like that.

[Vicky.]

I dont have any extended family. My mum and dad were both only children. And my grandparents siblings are long gone and didnt have kids of their own.

[Marsh.]

I see some cousins and a couple of Aunts and Uncles from my mum's side on a frequent basis because they don't live far.

But there's a couple of cousins I only see at the occasional birthday party and Christmas and we don't really have much in common. Kind of awkward.

Oh my good god... filey is my favourite place ever

[King Gizzard]

Haha my my mothers family is from there/she was born/raised there

[MTVN]

My distant family are all dotted around and none of them are that local so only see them about once a year really

[Josy]

A lot of my family and extended family pop in every couple of days and the house is hardly ever empty since having nephews and nieces that aren't that much younger than me means I have them popping in at all times of the day normally to say "i'm starving make us something to eat", "can I get" or "I'm staying".

Same here, only they don't live in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire.

[Shaun]

I go to see one of my aunts usually around once a fortnight when I'm at home... other aunts and uncles usually only about twice, three times a year there's a lot of ill-feeling between some members of them and it's sad because there never really used to be when I was younger... but yeah, bad things happened to many people (a murder, a couple of drug addictions, divorces, etc.) and it just strained relationships I guess. I should try to make more of an effort really.

Are you cool Aunty Josy then? lol

[Kizzy]

Your family sound like mine shaun, think emmerdale on acid ...lol

[Brother Leon]

A fair bit.


One of my cousins is pretty much my brother. Been through way too much with him back when we were young and dumb. On the whole I see my extended family a fair bit. Around about December time we all go to my nan's every Saturday until Christmas. Dad slammed in the family menality to me and my brothers when we were young and it's kinda stuck with us since.
