SIL has never 'asked' for advice but manipulated the situation so that advice is offered but never asked for. Having observed this situation for 25 years it usually makes me chuckle but for some reason the latest escapade has wound me up.
DH received a phone call today at work from Sil who was puzzled why he answered as she had phoned an 0800 telephone number whilst trying to find self catering holiday accommodation for new year!!! As he (dh) answered could be suggest any websites she may find useful. Background is that we holiday in the uk regularly and she (Sil)has never booked self catering in the UK. It turns out that Sil is sorting new year holiday for12.
Why not just phone and ask us if we could recommend?
