I have some snobby cousins getting married this year and next. One is the Saturday before christmas this year and Save The Date cards have just been sent out in the form of Fridge Magnets which are if i have to say 'A FAB idea'
BUT said cousin is a snob, she was brought up a snob and still is a snob.
She lives in Chester with her Fiance, they live in the Penthouse of a apartment block and have good jobs (dont know what he does tbh but she is a Top Kitchen Designer)
Her mother (my auntie) is making the cake for the wedding.
Now everyone has to book a night at a hotel in the area of the wedding because its alot o travelling for most the family (112 miles to be precise)
My mum has booked her room, my other snobby auntie and snobby cousins have booked their rooms for the night.
I cant afford to book just yet as skint to the bone (i have about 78p in my purse until wednesday) DH started new job on 24th but has a month of training - he gets paid at end of month.
Apparently when he signed up for the job they said it was 6mthly contracts but they never finish you after 6months because they are always plenty of other aspects of the job to learn etc etc
Anyway just been speaking to DH about the up and coming wedding at christmas and DH said "if we cant afford it we cant go, we are not just dropping everything at the drop of a hat for your family"
which i do agree, (i mean this time last year half the family was up in ore and were all bitching at everyone and i was in the middle of it all, playing second fiddle) but since they all started talking you would think i was the one in the wrong in the argument that went on for 2 years :()
Anyway all the chat about wedding etc etc DH has said that we will go to the ceremony then drive back - its 112 mile there and back and i dont want to be driving for the sake of seeing someone say 'I Do' and then driving all way back because knowing my luck DH will have a few drinks when we get there and then i will end up having to stay sober and drive the whole way back - well its not happening. :(
Grrrrrrrrrr why do families have to piss me off so much.
