I'm venting.
On holiday dropped in to see husband's cousin- another branch of the family was visiting and they mentioned they were coming to our part of the country.Kindly my husband said-you are welcome to stay...thinking a couple of nights as this is what reasonable people may think is okay when you have a toddler.
So it turns out to be 9 days- 4 people- other relatives who had come over for an event.
They are due to go and I am blumin knackered- cooking huge meals every night. Would you not think they would give us a night off and go for a meal whilst on holiday....no no just "What time shall we be back for dinner?"
Dropped so many hints ...none taken.
I have instructed my husband to never ever make such a polite offer again.
What kind of people think it is okay to stay a week with relatives they have never met before?Stay in every night and expect to be given the tourist show at the weekend when it is the only time we get for quality time together?
That feels better to have said it....I just cannot believe the cheek of it to be honest.Are any of you okay with distant relatives just turning up with only a week of notice to use your home like a full board hotel?

To think visitors( distant relatives you have never met) should not think it is okay to stay for a week.
