To think you don’t do this when someone is taking you out for a meal…?

DH took his sister out for dinner to celebrate her birthday at the weekend - it was a nice restaurant so he knew it wouldn’t be cheap but his sister ended up ordering the most expensive food items on the menu & had 8 cocktails at £20 a go!!!

The meal ended up costing hundreds and hundreds of pounds - so much so that I’ve had to bail him out so he could get through the rest of the month.

If someone is treating me to a meal, I always make sure I don’t choose the most expensive thing on the menu - surely this is just basic manners ?!

AIBU? Or was she really grabby to do that ?

Never in my life would I call a spirit and a mixer a cocktail. That’s an alcoholic drink.

Is a rum and Coke a cocktail? An archers and lemonade? We clearly have both ends of the scale here 🤣

Yes, absolutely. Those are both examples of cocktails.
