To think dh's best mate is a cheeky fecker?

[CatthiefKeith]

Dh went to a funeral/wake yesterday. He didn't get home until 11.30 (Late funeral, followed by wake, entirely expected)

His mate, lets call him prick (not his real name) went to London with his gf on Tuesday, they saw a show, stayed the night, spent yesterday seeing the sights and then went to a Medieval Banquet thing last night.

At 11pm my mobile rang. I saw it was Prick, and ignored it, assuming he wanted DH.

House phone rings. Now I'm concerned so answer it, and the conversation went like this:

Prick "Hi Keith, we are at the train station 5 miles away, and haven't got any money - can you tell dh to come and get us?"

Me "No. he's at a wake. He's been drinking, so he won't be able to come and get you.

Prick "can you come then?"

Me "What? No. Dd is in bed"

Prick. "So? It'll only take you 10 minutes"

Me "NO! It is 11pm and my 4 year old is alseep"

Prick "What about if you phone Dh, tell him to come home, then he can stay in with her while you come and get us?"

Me " What goes click, Derrrrrrrr?" (Hung up)

Aibu to think if you can afford a West End Show, dinner, hotel, sightseeing, and a medieval night you should make damn sure you've got enough money to get your stupid arse home from the train station?

Did you actually say 'What goes click, durrrr?' before hanging up?

Because if you did, then I've fallen a little bit more in love with you today

It really is Cheeky Fecker Week on MN - so far we've had guests demanding repayment by bank transfer of £1.70 spent on milk and bread, and 'crowd fund our round-the-world trip!'

So they missed the train they were meant to be on I assume? Rather than being declined.

He is a prick.

also laughing at (not his real name)

LumelaMme - May i direct you to classics where there are two threads on this very subject... one notably titled something like 'Does anyone have a friend as cheeky as this?' which contains the now infamous 'Mexican House Thief' story...

Cheeky feckers 2

You're welcome...

There are usually cash machines at stations, aren't there? Or have they emptied their bank account during their break? Idiots.

Bloody hell Keith

I thought you said you led a quiet life?

Think dh needs to have serious words with him.

Where's the £1.70 milk/bread thread?

Yes I did say 'What goes click....durrr....' before hanging up. I do it to Dh sometimes. Drives him batshit crazy but it makes me laugh!

Would you like the link to this cheeky fuckers crowd funding page?

I will, one day, nc and post a big fucking rant about that, but today I am ranting about last night, so lets stick to the thread in hand!

Dh and I think they probably bought standard return tickets, without realising they would only be valid on the day of purchase, unless they specifically told the ticket office person that they wanted to return two days later. Because they are thick as custard

Nadia, they had probably emptied their bank accounts. They both have good jobs, he has a secondary income too, yet they are permanently skint. Everything is on credit, they drive brand new cars, have fab holidays etc, but regularly miss mortgage payments, are up to their eyes in debt etc. I don't know how they sleep at night tbh

I'm still in shock that two people over 30 declared themselves 'skint' after blowing money on a weekend of fun. Have they no fecking shame?!

Idiots!

Start that thread now!

I'm assuming Prick is an adult, and the girlfriend too.

Cheeky fuckers can walk if they can't think far enough ahead to plan their own way home.

YA so NBU

ImperialBlether

I don't know how they sleep at night tbh

Because they rationalise that it is all someone else's fault. As in, our mates didn't help us out, the rail network declined our ticket, etc etc

They are entitled to the maximum degree and I'm afraid that yes, they see you, your DH, the rail network, and probably most other people as their substitute parents.

You are simply there to bail them out. If you reasonably refuse, they get angry with you.

It is a game.

The debt is the bank's fault, obvs.

YANBU at all, and Prick is a very apt name!

Keith you know the worst people ever. It seems like everyone's a cunt. Terrible for you, marvellous for us.

Dancing I know some lovely people too, but they are so nice that they never do anything thread worthy!

Op are you the lady who had a snuggle with a feral cat ??

Myfoof yes probably. Do you mean the scabby shredded Tom cat that kept me warm on a cold night on a balcony in Tunisia?

Yes that the one !!! I don't know if I can say that but I had a good time reading your threads ! Comedy gold ????

Deserves a place in the cheeky fecker hall of fame!

Cat why has your name just changed mid thread your posts are not highlighted anymore??? Weird.

You absolutely do live a life way more exciting and interestingly thread worthy than mine, I am bizarrely jealous.

Prick and gf are indeed a pair of pricks.
