I have been harping on about my birthday for ages and texted people this morning asking for a yes/no for a meal so I could book a table.

Just got a reply saying - well i have nothing else planned so I am a yes for now.

Um. To me that implies that if something else better comes up its a no - why can people not commit to a fecking meal for their mates birthday which is only 2 weeks away.

Yes for now?!!?!?! What sort of friend are they? Send a text back saying that you've got too many booked at the table and can't place them so they can go and find something else to do 'for now'

Not a joke - badly thought out I suspect. Shite tho.

Ho hum. I suspect nobody will turn up anyway so at least she is being honest!

Love LL suggestion!

It's almost certainly meant as a joke, but it's so rude that it's a very poor and bad taste joke.

If I were you I'd change the venue, and let everyone know except them.

I think that's very rude. Unless it was meant as a joke?
