Friends supposed to be coming round for dinner tonight. friend has been feeling unwell since Sunday and so last night I rang to see how she was feeling and to ask if they still want to come for dinner. friend says "can I let you know tomorrow morning?" (ie this morning)...still haven't heard anyhting and I really would like to know either way so I can either start getting things ready or relax!

I know I could text her and ask but its starting to feel a bit like I'm hounding her!

Just send a text saying hope you feeling better, looking forward to seeing you this evening.

See what she says back!

Can you just text with "Sorry if it feels a bit as if I'm hounding you, but could you let me know if you're coming tonight? Hope you're feeling better."?

very annoying. I hate vague friends. I have a similar thing last year.

I'd be tempted to just cancel.

I cant stand people not letting you know situation.

I agree Ginger. Very rude. I'd have just sent a text saying 'let's rearrange in the new year' and then not bothered.

any apology for late reply?

notasize10yetbutoneday · 21/12/2010 14:27

Nope! Just "yep see you tonight". Am really quite peeved now. Plus it means I have to stop Mumsnetting and do housework.

you could reply and say, oh sorry since you hadnt replied I assumed you werent coming and ate the food/gave it to the dog/invited some other guests.

Hope its a nice evening in the end!
