to think it's really cheeky to invite someone to a BBQ then expect them to bring...

...The BBQ!?

We were invited last week to a friends today for a BBQ. They called this morning asking to borrow our BBQ, we assumed there's had broken or the one they ordered hadn't arrived etc - but no. They don't have one. So we suggested they come to ours and bring some of the stuff they'd bought as our BBQ is very heavy and large (won't fit in the car without removing the child seats and lying all seats flat) but it turns out, that not only did they want us to bring our BBQ, they wanted us to leave it at theirs as they are having other friends this evening.

Was IBU to say no? That I didn't want to take our large BBQ and gas bottle to their house and leave it with them?

Venison can be deer - Depends how much doe you have.

@SunsetBeetch how can we shorten it 😂😂

@Hidinginstaircupboard

Steal your diving equipment too, not dining - doh!

I thought hang on have I missed them borrowing the dining table and chairs too 😁

Is OPs name Sam? Is Glenda the CF friend who refuses to buy her own BBQ/scuba diving equipment/Hoover/shoes then has the balls to tell OP she ruined their BBQ?

I can't stop refreshing.

Thanks Glenda I needed a NC

Who’s the 1% who says that you’re unreasonable?! 😂😂 your bbq borrowing friend?!

Drawers are important.

Put it away.

This thread is so funny. Go away, Glenda, buy a BBQ. OP do you Glenda is actually your (ex)friend?

Hoping OP @dotdashdashdash had such overwhelming MNers support
that she abs DH will be able to put up drawbridge for her CF/ (refit choosing beggar) "friends" and cut the fuckery chaff out of their lives

OP sounds kind abs generous and that she helps out her friends but these were something (selfish) else

When picking abs deciding who to keep as friends it is about give and take and equality and respect .
We get the friends we deserve

Hopefully OP abs her DH will be able to weed out selfish a-holes like this again but far quicker ... look how quickly we all spotted Glenda (whether she was a tr-o...l..l or not) but she was an a-hole that takes advantage of friends clearly too if she was in fact real

OP sounds lovely and will always end up with lovely friends that she decides to stick with as worthy nice friends. But she and DH can decide who is worth their time. Please don't lend out stuff, (if you don't get it back within two weeks in same condition then don't lend anything again.) please take this OP as an learning experience about how some people aren't worth your friendship, time nor generoirisity abs there are people out here that will encroach your life and do deserve if as their kindness matches yours . Don't settle for less

What did they say to your DH? And what was the previous behaviours that made you want to distance?

Thank you MN. Don't often find me giggling in bed at 11pm.
