I don't really see or speak to my dad that much because we aren't very close as a family. I've been trying to build up the courage for a while to tell him I'm pregnant because I wasn't sure how he'd react. He's an alcoholic & his moods and mind can change very fast.
It actually turned out to be a very funny experience though. He phoned to see if I was coming over at Christmas & I thought "well no time like the present" and did it. He went quite and then said "just a moment, I need a sip of wisky"..... followed by quite a long pause while you could hear him drinking and choking on whiskey, followed eventually by him being happy about it. Thank God thats over with.
