Carol has replied to Anne saying she is shocked that Anne would cancel her flight after promising it. Anne has told her that she gave her no option .
Both Barbara and I have messaged Carol saying that she has behaved badly and should apologise to Anne.

I really can't find the words for this pair of (to steal a phrase) cuntwaffles.

I hope after all of this the three of you have a relaxing stress- free, dick-free holiday, and that Anne in particular can put this behind her and chill for the week.

If you want a short, fat but feisty bodyguard for the week, let me know! I'll pay for my own flights and accommodation, and leave Mr ThreadKiller at home!Grin

Proper CFs - nicely handled!

Skyejuly · 19/06/2019 21:55

Definitely send her a postcard@Oldbutstillgotit

OldBut is probably safest not to meet up: you'd likely start calling your friends by their mumsnet names: "Look Carol, Dick wasn't invited" etc 😂

I think you might have missed a capitalisation there!! Grin

Binglebong · 19/06/2019 22:00

The CFer is strong in both these gits.

I'm inclined to agree, I was just trying to point out to those who assume Dick must be the bad guy that it can as easily be the Carol. Or, of course, that they are both as bad as each other.

RevealTheLegend · 19/06/2019 22:03

El Villzillo! Prepare to be holidayed with!!

Holidayed AT.

Kateguide · 19/06/2019 22:04

Genuinely words fail me. As my Gran would've said, 'it's good that Carol and Dick are together because they would spoil another couple. '
Anne has acted with dignity and grace throughout this CFery. Well done for cancelling the flights.
Agree there is no point in meeting unless Carol is going to apologise which can wait until you get back. It's not going to change anything before you go.
Barbara's husband needs to make sure Dick is not talking crap at the golf club.
I genuinely hope that the 3 of you have a wonderful time

Megs4x3 · 19/06/2019 22:10

I hope you’ll be back to tell us what a wonderful holiday you had without Carol and Dick. There may have been drama but it’s all been handled beautifully.

HeronLanyon · 19/06/2019 22:11

All hail queendaisy for ‘villazilla’.

Look folks, if Dick is actually ‘Villazilla’ that means we have yet to meet J to Y (we did just catch a glimpse of Ivan (?) the taxi driver I think). So much more to come !!

Imnotbent · 19/06/2019 22:12

Some people just don’t understand boundaries. I know a couple who turn up on people’s holidays, not to stay in the same villa / hotel but same area.

In the past they have asked people when and where they are going then at the airport have got on the same flight and turned up to visit the accommodation. This is at least three holidays that I have known of and possibly other friends holidays. If they say they are going away with friends we are never sure that the friends know!

And yet people feel uncomfortable not telling them where they are going, most people have learned to reply with a not sure yet. If they asked me I would tell them somewhere else.

Daisypie · 19/06/2019 22:14

I think Carol is one of those women so committed to pleasing her man that she can't believe other people won't change their plans and preferences around him. Dick wants a free holiday in the master bedroom, so why doesn't everyone else see it that way?
You will have such a nice time without this ghastly couple. Anne has behaved impeccably.

OralBElectricToothbrush · 19/06/2019 22:16

Just don't answer her anymore or tell her to fuck off. No need for drama.

DickZillaofTheVilla · 19/06/2019 22:19

I MUST know how this turns out. Hope you manage to have a lovely holiday despite all this OP please keep us posted.

dontdoxmeeither · 19/06/2019 22:20

Really feeling for Anne!

eurochick · 19/06/2019 22:22

Thanks for linking the original thread. That is quite some cheeky fuckery.

CassianAndor · 19/06/2019 22:26

Where’s the link to the previous thread, I can’t see it anywhere!!

ThreadKillerSleepsInACoil · 19/06/2019 22:27

@gottastopeatingchocolate
Hahaha, ooops! BlushGrin I blame the Wine

Sorry OP, clearly should be Dick-free! The dick content of your holiday is up to you!!

LegionOfDoom · 19/06/2019 22:28

All hail queendaisy and the username DickZillaofTheVilla

😂

Soola · 19/06/2019 22:29

Dies anyone else have a mental picture of Carol and Dick?

This is what springs to my mind -

NotYourHolidayDick · 19/06/2019 22:30

Update OP? We need the next chapter.

TheInvestigator · 19/06/2019 22:33

What sort of update are you expecting? This isn’t a movie. They’ve said no to meeting up. The holiday isn’t until next week. It’s likely that nothing else will really happen. If it does, it will just be more crappy messages from Carol.

NotYourHolidayDick · 19/06/2019 22:35

Of course it's a movie!

I'm expecting the twist!

MaggieFS · 19/06/2019 22:39

I really want to know how this gets talked about at the golf club!
