My wife asked me to get a "treat" for the builders doing our extension as it's Friday. I bought ferrero rochers. Apparently that's not appropriate and i should have bought biscuits or a cake. WTF is she on about??

Your building site is an "ambassadors reception" Grin

LOL!

You bought them for yourself really didn't you, McColonel?

ShatnersBassoon · 13/02/2015 19:15

Did they know they were for them? If I was in someone's house and there was a box of ambassador-standard chocs by the kettle, I wouldn't get stuck in. Digestives, on the other hand...

You really did need to circulate with a pyramid.

They definitely knew they were for them cos i told them. One said he didn't like chocolate, the other one said he'd have one but didn't, and the third one wasn't there today. .. oh well, more for me!

Are they coming back? Perhaps you could try Matchmakers tomorrow?

the other one said he'd have one but didn't

YANBU! The lads who did my bathroom refit told me that sometimes they aren't even offered a cup of tea on jobs.... They would have loved the naff posh choc! Smile

YABU it's Friday which means Fish & Chips or a Bacon & Egg butty (accompanied with 4 gallons of tea) at the very least. My DH is a builder and he would be most upset with you OP Wink

Our builders only drink green tea. Body builders, don't you know.
