It was my friends daughters 1st birthday yesterday. She had given everyone set time to show up for dropping off presents and to see her dd. My family was assigned 12-12:30 I text her during the week to say we would be there but would be slightly later as my dd football finished at 12. She changed the time to 12:30-1 which I said was no problem. After football we drove to her house and my dd was still in her football strip. Today she has texted me saying Hi I wasn't going to say anything as I didn't want to make you feel bad but I was very upset that ....... showed up to ..... 1st birthday party in her football strip given the fact I changed your time to accommodate her football. It would of been nice if you could have made an effort and got her changed into proper party attire.
I still haven't replied as I don't no what to say.
WIBU by not changing dd8 out of her football strip?

It's funny that you all think that a story buried in the online edition of the Mirror has more views than a thread that spent days near the top of Active Conversations on Mumsnet.

squeaver · 20/05/2021 12:26

And that Mumsnet could do anything at all about having it removed from the Mirror site.

Welcome to the internet.

I'd reply that you were disappointed she hadn't made an effort. It was her daughter's only 1st birthday after all where was her ballgown?

Hello people reading from newspapers looking for stories.

You are all cunts.

Mumsnet is not some private little space.

You write something on here and you need to realise its here for the whole world to see - including journalists or anyone with access to google.

It might be a bit awkward if the friend does see it and mentions it to you but hardly the end of the world. You simply asked for other people's opinions about a perplexing situation. It would be different if you used her real name.

Actually this is so weird I wonder if she has PND?

Totally Agree with this!

MN is a public forum, Once it’s out there it’s accessible for all to see.

I'm a regular MNer. Can I get paid for rehashing popular threads for trashy red tops? It seems like easy cash to me

RottieMum80 · 22/05/2021 12:28

100% this ☝️👌🏼

What a lunatic!
