My Sister in law is having her hen night Saturday up Broad Street in Birmingham. She rang stu Last Tuesday o ask would i like to go. I didn't think i needed a invite being family and all!!!! Im not particularily fussed about going but am to keep he peace & not cause arguments. Her fiance has rang me tonight to tell me her bridesmaid has organised a limo to take us. I'd have to be at their house by 6.30 but couldn't let her see me so would have to hide aroung the corner. He then told me i had to pay £15 aswell. I was not too pleased so have to tell him i won't be bothering. 6.30 is far too early for me. She's going a male lap dancing club later in the night too. he cost of he limo, a taxi to hers from mine, The enterance to lap dancing club & taxi back home will be almost £50. Then the cost of drinks on top too. I feel bad but can't afford that much, id be looking at around £70-80

Its ok for her & her friends they got no kids, my oher sister in law is in the exact boat as e & we feel bad about it now but there's not alot that we can do about it. Just hope it doesn't cause aruements & if it does it's tough

well if he wants a limo for her shouldnt he be paying

it seems a bit steep for a night out she should understand and not let it cause arguments after all u have 3 kids to look after 70/80 is a lot of money

Yeah, it's all very well and good going out for the night but not if you have to re-mortgage your house to do so! It's a bit naughty to go ahead and book it all and expect you to pay when they didn't even ask you if that was ok! Some people just don't think..................

I know, her bridesmaid has organised it & left it up to my bil to be to phine round ppl to tell them. If i'd been told a few weeks ago i could have saved for it, i only knew about the night out last tuesday!! I spoke to my other sil today & she's said he same thing. We're gonna make our own way here & meet them aroung 8-8.30

I just keep thinking of the things i could buy with that amount of money.

At least you can still meet up with them later and have a few bevvies with them anyway! Not an all round failure and it proves your point that you're not the one being arsey but they are inconsiderate................... Have a good time!
