Lighthearted thread.... But honestly now!

I get on very well with my neighbour... But....

She invited me round for coffee and cake today, but all she gave me was half a cappacino... And no cake!!

I feel like I've been so let down....

but she's babysitting for me later so I can go to work so I really can't do that

invite her round for tea and biscuits, the give her stewed tea. amend nothing else.

that'll learn her Grin

SPsFanjoIsAsComfyAsAOnesie · 23/01/2013 16:32

LTN immediately!

Sue for false advertisement as she mentioned cake to get you round and did not produce said cake.

From now on when anyone mentions cake and coffee please get it in writing. This happens to many people

SPsFanjoIsAsComfyAsAOnesie · 23/01/2013 16:33

If she is babysitting for give children red bull or some sugary substance

Bella88 · 23/01/2013 16:34

Have a root in her bin next time for some condemned cake Grin

I don't think I want to come home to a 14 month old high on red bull!

Anyone ever tried making a cake with no sugar? Would that be an evil enough comeback?

I would stand right outside her window and, making sure to maintain eye contact, eat an entire cake very slowly. Then mouth the work 'cake'.

Then repeat. Every. Single. Day.

helenthemadex · 23/01/2013 16:38

what a bloody tease, its just so wrong when someone does this to you, get new friends with lots of cake

Catchingmockingbirds · 23/01/2013 16:40

She brought you into a verbal contract that she's only fulfilled half of... Completely unreasonable.

You could stand infront of her livingroom window eating cake and just stare at her so she knows what she's done.

I don't know whether I give her another chance as she is pregnant!

Omg.

I bet she ate my cake before I got there!

Haha....can't believe we came up with the same twisted solution! Great minds and all that...

atthewelles · 23/01/2013 16:43

LOL at advice from Dawn and Catching.

SpicyPear · 23/01/2013 16:44

How long did you stay there? You should have said "Cake now, or I'm leaving". Maybe you should get CBT to learn how to be assertive with cake witholders.

BabsAndTheRu · 23/01/2013 16:45

DAWN, god one.

Call round to her house and when she opens the door smash a big cream cake in her face.

BabsAndTheRu · 23/01/2013 16:47

That should say good not god, stupid auto correct.

schobe · 23/01/2013 16:48

Have you ever thought that perhaps she expected you to bring cake?

It's a nice gesture when you pop over to someone else's for coffee.

I bet she's livid over there.

schobe · 23/01/2013 16:49

And pregnant. Livid and pregnant. Oh dear.

KC225 · 23/01/2013 16:50

No cake!

Talk about rip off Britain. Report her to Watchdog.

DoodlesNoodles · 23/01/2013 16:56

When I invite my nieghbour round for a coffee she brings the plated cake with her. She is my favourite nieghbour ever. Once she bought macaroons Shock
