To be annoyed?

[bunhead34]

My sister and I live in the same city, all family are 550miles away.

Recently she moved out of the city to a commuter town and is now 2rs on public transport away from me.

Our parents came to stay with her this weekend (3 nights) to see her new house. Fair enough. Obvs I wanted to see them too so she invited me up for dinner on Saturday. I went early, around 3pm so I would have plenty of time and not have to run off super early for the train.

I met them in the pub when I arrived, thinking that it would be a drink, wonder around town, and then home for dinner. This turned into another pub/drink about 4 times until about 9pm, when it would have been too late for me to wait for dinner (and I most likely would have had to cook it) and eat without missing the last train. (Worth noting I have just given up drinking which my sister knows, plus she is supposed to be doing sober October, so I wasn't expecting a mad piss up)
So I just went home again. So it was a 4hr round trip for some diet cokes in a shite pub, and I was starving.

Also, I moved to a new area last year and my parents have make no effort to come an see where I live. I could have invited them down at some point but I only knew they were coming through my sister so I felt like that was off the cards. Plus the travelling is a lot to ask!

Nobody asked if I got home alright until yesterday afternoon (by which time I could have been long murdered 😂) and no apology. Am I being unreasonable to be annoyed?

A bit unreasonable
Didn't they do food in the pub?

No. None of the pub we went to we're doing food, just crisps!

Did you say anything like
Let's get some food or I'm hungry

Yeah, I said 'if you have another drink
I won't have time for dinner' - went ahead anyway

sorry but do people speak to each other anymore face to face? why didn't you say about getting some food ?

Did you say anything like
Let's get some food or I'm hungry

Yeah you should have said I'm starving I need to get food and either made them go to a pub that serves food or just went off yourself to get something quick.

Surely the purpose of the day was to see your parents, which you achieved? I can't understand why you didn't suggest getting food if you were hungry?

i'd have said i need to eat so not staying for another drink, if you are joining me that would be great, if not i'll see you later and walked out.
bolshy moo me

We went to about 4 different pubs looking for food - stopping for a drink at each. None of them were doing food

But it sounds like you went to the pub, hoped for food, there was no food, so you just had a drink. If I'm looking for food, and I go in a pub that's not serving any, I go somewhere else ... or I go and get some takeaway food. Were there no food options in this town that had 4 pubs close by? Or did you just not speak up enough (and no one else was bothered about getting food)?

Well I went to have dinner with people, so I expected that to happen.
It didn't make sense to go off and eat on my
Own, I may as well have gone home. Which I did.

Perhaps I will just add this to My book of slights and forget about it!
