Breakfast guests

[LadySlipper11]

DH has just told me, at 10 to 8 at night, that we are having some old friends of his over tomorrow for breakfast! At 8am! This from the man who NEVER gets up to do our DS breakfast feed at 6.30/7am. But he can get up for people he hasnt seen for 8 years, that I have never met! I am full of rage. But perhaps IABU as I'm knackered and hormonal!

Maybe the WiFi doesn't reach OP's bedroom so she can't update while enjoying her full English/continental breakfast in bed?

And I could do re-heated, 2-day-old veg chilli leftovers, three end-slices of bread (scrape off the mould) and half a bottle of wine (if they're quick).

Unescorted

Shared space? Nobody shares my space in a Sunday morning! It’s bad manners.

Why though!? Why are they coming at 8am!?!

Are they passing through, off out for an activity? I don't get it.

I'd be guessing this was more their suggestion than your DP's, but he was a weasel for going along with it!

Probably got one of those hobbies, you know thats outing ...

OP is probably having a great time making friends with her new guests! No news is good news!

I hope OP is enjoying a leisurely bath after her full English, lovingly made by her husband and served to her in bed.

If she’s washing up greasy plates right now I say LTB.

Is Umberta a sock do we think

Update! DH unearthed some bacon in the freezer last night so he made bacon rolls. I did get up to meet them and say hello, but I didnt help in any way just sat leisurely drinking my tea and saying things like "oh this is so nice, you never normally do this (wanker)" because I'm mature.

Definitely having a conversation later about him helping more with DC breakfast. To be fair to him he does a lot with them during the day and bath and bedtime is always his responsibility, but that is NOT THE SAME as giving me a lie in!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍💃🎉

Excellent update OP! Well done!

Good for you, OP, but why were they there at 8am anyway?!

Love it, you can do Saturdays and him Sundays.

"So you will do it for friends but not me and the DC???"

Great outcome OP.

And it was them that suggested the 8am! They were in the area for a wedding and are travelling home today. It was DH that responded with "well come on over for breakfast then" which still makes him an idiot.

Well played OP. I love a good positive outcome. Now he just needs to start shifting his arse for his own kids early next Saturday or Sunday. We can be fair here - you do Sat and he does Sunday or vice versa now he has proved that it is fucking possible!!

Wasn't breakfast included with their hotel/guest house?
He's an idiot as you say, they'd probably have been happier with an extra hour in bed as well. Could have stopped by later in the morning for coffee/tea before they left.

I'm loving your passive aggressive comments around the breakfast table. I know mn doesn't like them in general but in your case they were bang on the money

I'd go fucking spare if DP invited anyone for breakfast.

How many guests?

Good outcome, Ladyslippers!

And yes, now he's shown himself capable, he can fucking do it again next weekend just for you, but preferably at a more reasonable hour!

You are a much nicer person than me @LadySlipper11

And your 'guests' were just as thoughtless as your husband

This thread really is peak MN. 'Just pop the champagne in the fridge'- because everybody just has a bottle of that lying around!

He can definitely get up with the kids now OP!

Thanks for updating us, OP.

Every Sunday should be ‘bacon roll in bed for you’ now, surely?

Stay in bed, ask for yours to be brought up to you and let him crack on.
