On Sunday the kids went round to my parents for the afternoon. It turns out that my dad had a tummy bug, that they knew about, and had had it since Saturday so not a surprise that came on suddenly.
They didnt say a word until dd started being sick this morning and I rang them to warn them (oh the irony) that they may get a bug after seeing her at the weekend. "Oh no, we've already had that, your dad was feeling quite bad on Sunday"
"So, why didnt you say anything? Why did you still ask if the kids could come round, know that he had a highly contagious bug?"
"Well we wanted to see them, and we thought it would probably be ok, its only a tummy bug, why are so annoyed?!"
Well lets see now, would that have anything to do with the fact that a) I have 6 kids in the house and tummy bugs are horrendous when they all come down with them, b) I have a lot of important meetings this week leading up to a huge event next week and really cant afford either time off or being ill and c) DH is all over the place since his redundancy the week before last and has several interviews which we cant afford for him to miss through sickness.
So, WIBU to tell that next time they are ill can they please tell us BEFORE hand?!
