Went to visit pil on saturday.
They live 30 miles away and we used to stay once a week. But we dont drive and had to get the train there. So we used to bundle the baby, moses basket, buggy, dog, clothes and all that jazz on the train.
My ds is now almost 8 month and he doesnt sleep in a moses basket. Sooo we bought a travel cot. It is way way too hard to get on the train with all the other things we need.
So we havent been to stay for weeks, first week in July i think. DPs parents said that they would get him a cot if we went through on Saturday.
I arranged for one on freecycle to be picked up by them. They didnt show up for it! I didn't know this because they said that they had a cot for ds.
When we got there on Sat. pils were on there way out to sil's friends 18th party.
There was no food in the fridge. Lots of beer though.
AND no cot for ds. Mil then said that because her brother was on holiday we were to stay at his house and use his cot - while they went to the eighteenth!!!
Now i bought them a carseat, buggy, highchair, babywalker, lots of toys for their house. Why cant they just buy a cot for him if they expect him to visit?
Soooo basically we went to visit them, on their request, and they went out to a party and we had to make our way to mil's brothers house to use the cot.
