I Am not an insecure man by nature, maybe a moaner at times and as with many of us, the provider of much the majority of income into the house.
I am however having a few problems since we have got our Live in helper. A pleasant and reliable, upper 30+ and I have no bones to pick about the output of Work at all but I can't get Azon or my Daughter to understand that I am beginning to feel like a Stranger in my own Home. Being a Prisoner is one thing through the day (As I don't Drive anymore) and how many hours should I ride my bike daily? but both the help and my workers(Painter /Gardner etc) even any visitors through the day just talk among themselves and pay little attention to the Mr of the House. Then when Azon gets home it is all Blah Blah and then I have to ask for translations. I don't want it to get to a situation where decisions are made and I am not informed or consulted, I have heard of instances just like this.
This a little rant as It am getting pretty frustrated by it all, Like the French, they can Speak English good enough for the needs of the day but don't

Any Ideas, Advice for this normally Happy Chappie Anyone?
