To email from friends on holiday plain weird?

A friend of mine is away for half term, I say friend as we have barely seen each other in the last few months and she is away on holiday with her family for half term. In the past three days I have had two long emails, from 'the poolside' going into great detail about the Club Class flight and the hotel and excursions the family have been on, including 'experience of a lifetime everyone should have'

She also says she hopes 'we have managed to get away' This is the same friend who called me at 10pm on a Friday night to ask if I wanted to look after her dog as 'she thought I could do with the money' I politely declined.

What's with this need to email and quite frankly show off? I'd love to hear all about it when she got back, face to face, over a coffee/drink, but could do without the emails!

Would you email people from holiday? I wouldn't! AIBU?

Get those bitches out of your lives. Do you think so little of yourselves that you call them friends!

I ended up facebooking my fab neighbour everyday, sometimes twice a day, from Spain because DS 12 WOULD NOT SHUT UP about his bloody kitten! so I had to get up to date progress reports to stop him worrying and driving us nuts (he's sleeping. still sleeping. licking his bum. asleep again.)

Your 'friend' is being a tool. Tell her you've decided against going away as too many of your mates seem to have wasted their money on boring holidays.
