Much as I've loved this saga, this is real life not a soap opera. Don't reply. But DO update us if you receive any other contact or hear any news Grin

BalloonSlayer · 09/08/2013 08:45

Never been on confetti but I reckon if you are doing a thread from the Bridezilla perspective asking for advice, I'd start with:

AIBU to be devastated that one of my oldest friends just refused to help decorate my wedding venue? I have no one else and was relying on her. I am SOBBING as I type.

. . . then dripfeed the rest. It'd be a ripper.

HorryIsUpduffed · 09/08/2013 08:47

Ooh yes, that would be beautiful. Wonder how many pages before someone said "Hang on, you uninvited her?"

EagleRiderDirk · 09/08/2013 08:52

I agree with no response, and very much that they will be back. She's still stuck on glue right Wink

Tiredemma · 09/08/2013 08:56

No response.

Much better than any response.

PedantMarina · 09/08/2013 12:31

member's post reminded me of an old expression: Never try to teach a pig to sing. It wastes your time and annoys the pig.

SarahAndFuck · 09/08/2013 13:39

"Never try to teach a pig to sing. It wastes your time and annoys the pig.''

Best saying ever Grin

bringthethunda · 09/08/2013 16:46

I'm going to do a complete 360 on my previous post and say don't respond. But once the wedding is over, start telling a few people that you're setting up a wedding venue decorating business called "Sylvanian Dreams". And that's why you couldn't help GZ, cos you were meeting with the bank etc to get it sorted. Mwa haha!

MrsKoala · 09/08/2013 17:45

Absolutely do not reply. As i said before you will give them hope that you may reconsider (even if you say you wont) and it would make you look like the kind of berserker who has invested far too much time and energy into this saga, the kind of person who would have 3 threads on an internet forum keeping audiences rapt in the updates...oh hang on... Grin

laeiou · 09/08/2013 17:48

Don't reply, there's nothing new to be said (apart from my previous suggestion "maybe next time ".)

I agree with the pp who said sister's "sorry you feel that way " is not an apology, it's them waiting for you to realise the error of your ways and do your duty!

LoisPuddingLane · 09/08/2013 18:03

Yes, "sorry you feel that way" means you are clearly taking it PERSONALLY and being a COW on PURPOSE but hopefully you will be swayed and come round to the wonderful speshulness of decorating the event you have no invitation to.

You could always do the decorations and then stand looking in the window, crying, like the little match girl.

WherewasHonahLee · 09/08/2013 18:04

Tidy When is the wedding? Just so we know when we can switch out the lights and go to bed on this one...

FruOla · 09/08/2013 19:43

WherewasHonahLee, I've been trying to work this out in my head too. I'm guessing that the wedding is one of the next few Saturdays in August!

laeiou · 09/08/2013 20:25

I think it's next weekend.

TidyDancer · 09/08/2013 20:32

I have made the tough decision to not reply. I am sorry about this, as I am aware that it may break some hearts. Grin

Only other news is that I am fairly certain another friend of mine is not invited due to a quite sarcastic facebook post. To which Gluezilla has replied "what's up hun?". Grin Grin

OP posts:
SoftKittyWarmKitty · 09/08/2013 20:35

Oooh, Tidy, that coud be a whole other thread Grin. Do let us know what the understandably sarcastic non-invitee responds to 'What's up hun', won't you?!

EmmaGellerGreen · 09/08/2013 20:38

Ooooooh, so gluezilla huns!! Please post the reply........

MrsKoala · 09/08/2013 20:42

TIDY! you temptress you, you really know how to keep us coming back for more. Grin

i must know what 'hun' says in reply.

CSIJanner · 09/08/2013 20:44

Oh no! Do you think hunfriend has been asked to help decorate...?

Mwah haa haarr!

FruOla · 09/08/2013 20:44

"What's up hun?"

................................ Grin

Justforlaughs · 09/08/2013 20:45

and so it continues.....

WhiteandGreen · 09/08/2013 20:49

Oh my god, it'll be thread 4 before we even know it!

SmiteYouWithThunderbolts · 09/08/2013 20:51

She HUNS? Oh good grief. What did the facebook post say? Can you paraphrase without outing yourself....?

Jossysgiants · 09/08/2013 20:53

Tidy i'm begging you, please don't let the thread die.... There has to be a to be continued...< weeps copiously into rough tasting Chardonnay >

3birthdaybunnies · 09/08/2013 20:59

Well at least we have conclusive proof that she hasn't posted more than once on mumsnet. She wouldn't last 30 sec in AIBU if she huns. Go on BalloonSlayer you know you want to join confetti.
