Steedie Always got on with my little brother, 4 years' difference between us. Although we did fight it never turned physical more verbal. He's always praising me too, saying he knows I'm capable of going to Uni and getting a Degree. My sister is 2 years' older and we never got on as children, always scrapping over someting. The scars she has given me you would not believe. We tend to get on better now though as we do not see each other every day. She's in Derbyshire and I'm in Notts. Joy

No. My brother and I never were very close and he went off to University at 18 then moved to Yorkshire, so it can be years between contact.

I am closer to my sisters than I was, although Tina never calls (just in case she's reading this) I don't speak to my brother at all! Julie xxx

I have a brother 3 yrs younger than me, we get on but don't see much of each other because of distance. A brother 6 years younger, my piglet, who I still feel close too even though 250 miles away. Sister 15 years younger, more like she is my child, and we get on but in a different way. She is 15 mins away, XXX

Yes and no, as you get older and have your own family you're not in each others pockets anymore.

I am very close to mine. There is only 2years between me and my big bro and we are very close, and talk alot and share secrets. Although we did fight like cat and dog when we were younger. The other night we were talking and he told me how proud he is of me, i thought that was lovely. The rest of them are all under 10 and i love them all and have lovely bonds with them. Do you still have that kind of relationship with your siblings or did you in the first place?
