to think that if the in-laws say they're coming to visit

[EsmeWeatherwax]

...then they should actually feckin turn up and not leave us hanging about the house on a Saturday afternoon? Or at the very least phone?

I'm so pissed off I'm going to burst!

Do they have switched on mobile phones??

Traffic?

Just bloody rude - If it was mine, I would be making my way out the door ...

Oh my god you could be me! I am doing exactly the same and know how blardy fecking frustrating it is.

Been waiting around, DH got pissed off and gone out with the kids now there's a break in the weather.

Mine do this.

Either turn up 5 hours early or 5 hours late. On occasion, they have changed their minds on the day and left 2 very disapointed gcs but a relieved dil!

Have taken to telling them I am out until 15mins before they are due so they can't get here too early.

Mine said they'd ring this morning with a time they were coming. Have they bugger? Of course not.

DH just got hold of them now and they've said they're just leaving to come here.

Well thanks for letting us sit about wondering if you were coming or not. And answer your bloody phones too while you're at it! Grrr.

Mine do this (well MIL as FIL wont come here when I am here ) We know she is comming sometime every weekend but it changes every single weekend. We used to stay in and wait, wasting the weekend. Now we go out and MIL has to wait for us to get back if she comes and we are still out.
