Wow. I don't think I have 14 family members, and I can't name more than five or six that I might like to talk to.

Gran
3 Aunts + 2 Uncles
Sister (today I got a temporary address for her - we've not spoken in 5? 7? years)
Nephew
1 Greataunt
11 cousins (plus 8 partners plus 12 children) and I'm on good speaking terms with all of them, we just only ever meet at weddings and funerals.

I just haven't got that much family any more really. There used to be millions of great aunts and second cousins once, but the former seem to have all died and the latter emigrated! I only really know about my own siblings and their kids (& i new grand kid!), and my mum's sister and her 2 kids & 1 grand kid (my uncle just died) (& my dad is only child). All the grand parents dead too. is rather dull.. the ones I have (the 13 or so) i see a fair bit so no big reunions to plan either.

So that's

M and D
3 siblings
2 nephews, 2 neices
I grand nephew (whom I am yet to meet)
I aunt
2 cousins
i second cousin

14 exact sans in-laws which was why the coincidence of number seemed funny..

Technically I have six uncles, seven counting the one who's my mum's cousin but is closer to her than two of her brothers, but my family is really not what you call close. Before you get into the whole I'm not allowed at family events because I'm embarrassingly weird factor. Effectively, there's my parents, my brother, and his wife. There was one cousin I was close to as a child who I'm now sorta in touch with through Facebook, but that's it.

As I may have mentioned, when Tony and I were wedding-list-ing, "immediate family and bridesmaids etc" came to about 50 people.

I have 25 "close family" relations:
2 parents
2 step-parents
3 siblings, 1 partner
4 step-siblings
1 step-niece
3 aunts on my dad's side, 1 partner, 1 spouse, 1 first cousin
1 aunt on my mum's side, 1 spouse, 2 first cousins, 1 with fiance
1 second cousin once removed who is particularly close to my dad and his sisters.


Tony has similar numbers of close relations.

I can enumerate another 15-20 more distant relatives of mine whose addresses I have or can find out. Again, so can Tony.
