To put my bloody plate back in its original place?

[DuffyHasABeard]

MIL staying. Soup for lunch. I out some side plates for the bread. I obviously put them on the "wrong" side as she went round the table moving them all to the left. I'm right handed and LIKE my bread plate on the right. So I moved it back, cue a "look".

I wouldn't care if it was a big posh meal but it was a bowl of bloody soup and a bit of sliced bread and it's my bloody house, table and plate!

AIBU?

So having a moan about a cheeky MIL makes me a potential murderer? Wow. Strange logic. And here was me thinking I'd released a wee bit of pent up tension by having a rant.

(please note: that does not say "released a pent up bit of wee")

Please quote where I said that I would rearrange the way a host has set the table.

MLA.

"Tables should always be laid correctly. How will your children learn if it is incorrect? There might come a time when it is important if entertaining someone outside your home."

What you (or MIL) do in your own home is your business. Do not, however, dictate to me what I do in mine by preaching to me about "etiquette".

I'm off now to drink my Weetabix straight out of the bowl.
