I haven't been coping very well today, simply because I need to know about the bladdy partaaaaay!

I'm grinding my teeth ffs!

stifnstav · 20/11/2012 20:55

Sparkle, join the club! I think we should be the "Not Knowing If It Is A Joint/Not Joint Party Destroyed My Life Quiche"

coffeeinbed · 20/11/2012 20:57

I think someone ended up wearing the cake.
Wonder if it was the OP or pushy mum..

Sparkletastic · 20/11/2012 20:57

I'm in. I'll make the badges, you devise the secret oath.

ImperialStateKnickers · 20/11/2012 20:57

Coffee thingy please stop messing about with that boring real life of yours and get back here NOW!

Party itself isn't for another couple of weeks yet, according to her OP on the other thread.

So we won't know for sure if the woman's going to turn up, even if the OP has talked to her.

we'll have to wait a couple of weeks.

rumbelina · 20/11/2012 21:06

I thought she said 6 days so this Saturday.

HecatePropylaea · 20/11/2012 21:10

Oh. My mistake. It said their birthday was in a couple of weeks not the party.

Posted on 18th. Said party was next weekend

So that's this weekend coming, yes, you're right.

I should learn to read properly Grin

hugoagogo · 20/11/2012 21:12

lurk

stifnstav · 20/11/2012 21:14

The party is next week but the confrontation was happening this week.

HecatePropylaea · 20/11/2012 21:15

Yes, but it ain't over till the fat lady blows out the candles Grin

Woman could still show up, regardless.

Hmm It sounds like I am hoping for that. I am not. Honestly, I'm not Grin

HecatePropylaea · 20/11/2012 21:16

Hmm that would have been better as it ain't over till the fat lady sings happy birthday.

why do I think of the better things AFTER posting.

tsk.

FryOneFatManic · 20/11/2012 21:18

I hate waiting for something, especially if, like today, my back is excruciating. On the plus side, DP has lifted all my heavy things, carried bags, made tea/coffee, etc, so a silver lining.

BeyondTheLimitsOfAcceptability · 20/11/2012 21:22

So its in a church hall? Should we start ringing round them, see if we can find a party for twin boys and a little princess? And they'll say, "oh no, that party's been cancelled, one mum is in a&e and the other was arrested"...?

grobagsforever · 20/11/2012 21:44

Baaaaah! I want to go to bed!!!!!!!Grin

SquirtedPerfumeUpNoseInBoots · 20/11/2012 22:20

Gawd. Is she still not back?
Cruel, thats what this is, cruel.

First not sharing a party, then making us all wait for an update, has she no heart?

grobagsforever · 21/11/2012 07:13

Right that's it, I'm moving on. I no longer care what happens. Hear that everyone? I DON'T CARE!

Come on where's my pink party bag, oh and you did get get some pink party bags didn't you? Only I've invited lots of girls.

iismum · 21/11/2012 12:11

Wait, I'm confused. Surely we want to find out about what happened because coffeedog painted a picture of this evil party usurper, and then someone else came on and said I think I might be the other mum you are talking about, and if so it wasn't at all how you said and I'm not evil or party-usurping.

So what I want to know is - is that the other mum coffeedog was talking about, and she totally misrepresenting the situation? Or are there coincidentally two pirate parties for twin boys in which a little girl is joining in - in one case, uninvited, and in the other case, amicably - except it my all go to shit because that mum thinks coffeedog is talking about her. Which is it?

But most posters on here seem only interested in the outcome of the party (which doesn't really seem to deserve its own thread) rather than the identification or not of the party usurper.

DappyHays · 21/11/2012 12:55

I'll give you an update:

Nothing happened because the original story was a crock.

grobagsforever · 21/11/2012 13:15

£100 says coffeedog has named changed...

diddl · 21/11/2012 13:26

Well I´m hoping that if it is real, it was a misunderstanding that gets sorted out & all the kids have a lovely time.

BuddyTheChristmasElf · 21/11/2012 14:07

can someone please tell me where possible other mum of girl asked if the OP was about her?
