So, 4 friends and I are attending a local race meeting shortly.
It isn't Royal Ascot, but it's a proper racecourse and people do dress smartly - when I've been previously with a different group of friends we all went in day dresses, fascinators/ hats, matching accessories, you get the idea.
Before we all agreed to go and booked tickets I spoke to friends about what to wear. All were happy to get dressed up. Apparently.
We also spoke about taking food with us - I don't drive, the others do but are rubbish with food, whereas I can put on a pretty decent picnic spread. I said I was happy to sort the food if someone would give me a lift to/ from supermarket.
So, now at the 11th hour, one has nothing to wear. 2 of the others have said as it might be cold can they wear trousers (they don't mean smart tuxedo-type either, just average slack kind of things!), one of those is also bringing a kagoul as the weather is dodgy 
. Friend 3 has nothing to wear, and no time to buy anything.
As to the picnic, yes no-one has time to sort that out either, so do I mind going to the supermarket on my own? Well, yes I do because I can't carry it all back myself, hence suggesting a lift!
Gah, all this has come as a flurry of texts and emails today, each one more annoying than the last - I thought we'd be all glam and SATC (well not really but some sort of glam) with our lovely picnic etc, now god knows what everone's turning up in, and there won't be any food at this rate...AIBU that this has irritated me? I am aware I'm probably being petty and don't mind being told so!!
