My friend from work (R) asked me a couple of weeks ago if I was going to (A)'s party which is next weekend - she hadn't invited me so obvious answer is No. She has invited everyone else from work and as R wasn't in the office for a couple of weeks A texted her. Well R is now back in the office and when the party was being discussed on Friday she asked if anyone had invited me - Silence... then "she never goes to any do" was uttered. Anyway the upshot was that A was going to ring me on Friday to invite me .... but hasn't! Now obviosly i do not wish to go as an afterthought but if she does ring then really want to get this across as if i had been invited originally i would have gone as it isn't too far away. (Xmas do last year was in Brum City Centre and there's no one who lives by me so would mean a long taxi journey on my own plus it started at 4pm so had childcare probs too)
