for XH to pick up the DD's :(
They are 9 and 3, overexcited and tired. DD2 is shattered and poorly.
We have had a lovely day, apart from the fact my mothers dog nipped DD2's face :(
He said he would pick them up between 2-3 for a few hours and to give them their presents.
So we had an early/rushed lunch, finished at 2pm, DD1 rung him to say they were ready, he said they had just started lunch and would be there at 3pm
At 3:45 and DD1 getting anxious, he rung to say he would be there in 5 mins and to be ready. He arrived at 4pm clearly drunk and proceeded to rant aggressively about the dog without even trying to discuss it and see how DD2 was.
When I said he couldnt take them and he was too pissed to drive, he sneered and said he wasnt, GF and their DD were in the car (a big stupid 4WD that I am pretty sure she isnt safe to be driving on the icey snowy roads).
So they're gone, upset, I am going to get back 2 very tired, hyper, irrtable children at god knows what time. He wouldnt have them tomorrow as he's "out", I offered earlier he said no.
I'm NBU am I??
