Bonfire night

Having a family bonfire night at DM's, myself DM and Dsis are splitting the bill for fireworks, now my DB and family want to come, should I ask them to split the bill or just bring some with them? Or is both BU?

I'd suggest that he brings some, in a 'we could do with some more, so feel free to bring your own'. Will there be food? Sort the split out for that straight away.

If DB and family want to come- they pay the same as everyone else - as you'll need more food and more fireworks. Don't let them bring their own as frankly you might get brought a few cheap sparklers and couple bags of crisps ... They pitch in same as everyone else

@Ponoka7 yes we will be making food but don't mind paying for that myself as its not expensive but it will be another 5 people to feed

The more the merrier but of course ask him to equally chip in. It's not a free display where he asks to come last minute to avoid paying!

Rather than splitting the cost, I would just ask that they bring some fireworks along!
