Aibu to be fumming right now!!!!!

[Fishwife1949]

Right was invited to dinner by sil, thought oh lovely sunday dinner

Got the kids cleaned up and oh put on a shirt , brought a smart bottle of veno

Got ther only to be greeted by cocktail sausages, garic bread and the cheap magtertia pizza yu get from iceland

There was 6 of us including them there was one pizza,one garlic bread and 8 cocktail sausages WTF

This is not because they are poor my brother is a chemical engineer ffs and drives a TVR

I would never serve that to any guest never mond the poor content its also the amount

We have had to get the children a ready roasted chicken on the way home with some salad and jackets

If you are going to invite somone for dinner then give them somthing decent and filling or dont bother

I would have had no issue with just visiting for a while then going home yo my roast ffs

This has all the makings of a [Pombear] thread!

That does sound a bit tight, but I dunno if I'd be fuming about it?!?

Oh yes, this could be good!

And YANBU OP, just for the record!

Does your sister run Newton's catering?

Horrendous, don't speak to her or your bil again, and go to the local papers with a photo of your starving kids.

Did she forget you were coming? YANBU btw.

PMSL at AKiss! You beat me to it! :)

I fuming. Right now! I just spent the afternoon making pumpkin soup for the family and it tastes like shit.

I'm going to have to run to tesco for cocktail sausages and a pizza......

My oh is not impressed and moaned all the way home and tbh i am right with him on this one espically as this is the first time i had been to theres

akiss I just laughed so hard I choked!

Op, did they specifically invite you for food or just a visit?

Were there pickled onions?

How could she forget she invited me and then rang this moring to confirm

Just invite them next week, and make sure you do a decent sunday meal, at least six courses and finishing with a nice port, and cheese board.

is that what they normally eat for sun lunch?

SuePurblybilt might have been a bit more of filling meal if there was

And yes we were invited for dinner

Hope you brought the vino home with you!

I have no idea if thats what they normally have because its the 1st time i have been there

But i really hope nope as my sil has a 2 year old

Is a cocktail sausage the new pom

I'd do as quote says - once

But not invite them again unless she seriously upped her game next time you went there.

invite them round next week... Do a tinfoil pineapple full of cocktail sausages and pickled onion and cheese cubes on sticks and a few bowls of pombears! Make it a new tradition

YANBU by the way!

Not seen in along time :)

That's an easy night tea for the kids, while me and DH has a sneaky Chinese, not something to serve for Sunday afternoon dinner

Did you query it?

8 cocktails sausages? Bloody hell I would have hoovered them up in one mouthful...

Maybe that was the pre-dinner snack and some ready meals washed down with fruit shoots were to come later?
