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.

If the penny hasn't dropped with Carol by now, then it never will. Pointless having a stressful meet up.

Love the idea of Geoff looking forward to you going, how different from Dick!

I have been gripped by this, and think there is no doubt that Carol and Dick would have shown up at your villa sooner or later.

One message to the group WhatsApp:

What is there to discuss? Your flight's been cancelled due to the extraordinary behaviour of you and Dick. There isn't any need for us to meet up because there is nothing to talk about. Unless you are planning to apologise? In which case you can start by doing it on here.

Or say yes, then all of you turn up with your husbands and procees with a lovely couple lunch. Ignore her. And feign total disbelief when she questions it because "we thought when you said a girls lunch you meant husband were welcome. Isn't that how you understand girls gatherings?"

Tbh Anne needs to block Carole. Whatever Anne has been through she doesn’t need this.

Grin Amazing!

OP, you do not read as selfish in any way.

While reporting the meeting would undoubtedly provide entertainment for this thread, I can't imagine it will do any good and could be stressful. I wouldn't meet. "What's done cannot be undone".

Bet you REALLY need that holiday now!!

PeoniesarePink · 19/06/2019 19:23

I'd love to be a fly on the wall chez Dick and Carols tonight, now their plans have gone up in smoke Grin

Strawberry2017 · 19/06/2019 19:23

Poor Anne, someone who she thought was a friend showed her true colours, the last thing she needed. I really hope you have an amazing relaxing time!
Thanks for keeping us updated! X

GreigLaidlawsbarofsoap · 19/06/2019 19:23

Oh god NO, please do NOT meet up to listen to her pleas and crocodile tears. It's done, end of drama, end of friendship. You've seen through her and Dickadoodle doo and there's nothing to discuss. Please don't let Anne be put through even more stress. She deserves to stop dealing with this now and start enjoying her holiday. You know, the one SHE has paid for. Support Anne, dump the villazilla bitch!

I love Villazilla! Grin

Am I the only one who is dying for the meet up?

This.

Orchidflower1 · 19/06/2019 19:25

Well OP I think quite honestly carol and dick should sod off on their own holiday and take CF “bridesmaid taken photo of bride in dress woman” with them.

All three CF “victims” who are seemingly unaware of their CF.

Both this thread and the bridesmaid thread have shocked me to the new level of CF out there!

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 19/06/2019 19:26

I'd let slip somehow a fake address. I might be nasty but the cheeky, grabbing fuckers deserve it.

Soola · 19/06/2019 19:27

Actual photo of Carol and Dick when they realised their dastardly plan to get a free holiday had failed!

Just checking the alphabet...
So we have
Anne
Barbara
Carol
Dick, Carol's dh
Eddie (Barbara's DH)
The OP was named by someone else as Fanny, purely for comedy vale
And the OP (who may or may not be Fanny) is married to Geoff or Gerry.
Have I missed anyone?
Shall we assume the Villa owner is Harriet and the taxi driver will be Ivan

TheresWaldo · 19/06/2019 19:27

Just say NO. End of drama. Hopefully she will get over it.

Oldbutstillgotit · 19/06/2019 19:28

Villazilla love it

cuppycakey · 19/06/2019 19:28

Is this still going? Why no-one just did a BIG FAT NO right at the very beginning and allowed all this drama is beyond me

They did! Confused It was ignored.

Much as I would love to get feedback from a meeting, I do agree it would be a waste of time and stressful for Anne. What does she want to do? If she were my friend I would be quite happy to respond on behalf of all of you telling her to Fuck Off so that Anne can ignore her.

In fact, blocking is probably in order now. They just are NOT going to go away.

cabingirl · 19/06/2019 19:31

How about you and Barbara meet Carol - let Anne relax away from the drama. You can make it quite clear to Carol that both she and Dick have behaved badly.

Has anyone replied to her request to meet up, OP? Some good suggestions for replies!

CassianAndor · 19/06/2019 19:33

Missed the end of the last thread - does Carol know Dick rang with villa and shouted at the owner?

Imagine living with that
