Perhaps not so much pedantic but will often misconstrue things you've said or imply you said something you clearly hadn't. It's often worse on a long thread and someone will refer to something you'd said a long way up thread, and just as in a conversation in real life you might have forgotten what you'd said. Time is then taken up trawling back through your comments to something you'd said but has been taken out of context. It's fair enough when they have a valid point but it can get tedious when you have to keep going on the defensive about something you hadn't said. Sometimes you feel like you're being grilled by the gestapo.

Chipping, it all sorted itself out in the end. GS1 started a new job just after New Year, and as she and DS1 had just spent two weeks in her home country over Christmas, she felt she could not have another week off almost immediately. So we all fitted nicely into three double rooms, with DS1 sharing with DGS. GF2 enjoyed her lessons, and DS2 took her out a couple of times when he got back in the afternoon. Normally I book several months in advance, but this time I said we would wait until prices dropped which they did. Our friend who insisted on a room to himself had to pay for two people, with no reduction to reflect only one seat on the plane was needed. That was the fate I was trying to avoid over our possible extra room.
Sorry to derail, OP, have some 
and YANBU
