    I have asked but theyre already all bringing a mate each so i dunno.

    Ive worked out that if i switch VIP rooms to one without its own bar ill cut back £50 so that'll help!!! i think ill have like a tenner spare then! xx

    My bm isnt sue if shes coming yet because theyre trying for a baby so she said she'd let me know a little nearer the time and shes gona bring a mate so that would be an extra £80. x

    Worth asking a few if they wanna bring 2 mates just to add up to what you're going to lose.. I'm sure they wouldn't say no, and if someone does, ask someone else to bring 2 :-) (I'd do the friend asking before the room swapping ;-) )

    Hoepfully she'll be able to come ! xxx

    I can understand that, how could you not when people have let you down.. You've just got to remember that those people that are coming are the ones that truly care (unless a valid excuse has been given for not coming of course)..

    And I'm sure its going to be an amazing night for you ! And I hope you get some more money from people and that you get so drunk on the night you forget the names of the people that let you down anyway ;-) xxx

    Thanks i cant wait hopefully it will be an amazing night!!! I am dead excited!!

    One of my h2bs mates and his gf are messing us around too! hes not paid any of his stag do off and its due by next week and its like £250 and ignores my h2bs messages asking if coming or not. Silly as he'll loose the £80 he paid for flights!

    And his gf isnt getting back to me about whether she is coming or not!

    I really do hate people like that lol

    People like that do my head in.

    Im supposed to be on a hen do tomorrow and my SIL isnt able to babysit now as her little one has gastroenteritis, im trying my hardest to sort a sitter out as my mum is going on holiday tomorrow and my H2B is on nights, so when you get people that just cant be arsed, its so annoying! Il make sure i pay what i owe as well if i cant go!

    Sorry to here about your hen do :(, mine was all the same, i actually sacked a bridesmaid and got fallen out with so many friends over mine, not because they couldn't come because they didn't even have the decency to say there weren't coming! x

    I have a friend thats notorious for being a let down, i say have, i mean HAD, there's just no excuse. Why say yes if you have no intention of showing up in the first placve?!

    When the nght rolls round Becki, you will have a fantastic night and you won't miss those that arent there, aside from those with genuine reasons lol, and I bet they'll regret not going as well as your theme looks well top!

    And im keeping my fingerscrossed about my own predicament, i have one last person to ask as its very short notice so it may well be me and the kid playing super mario tomorrow night at this rate hahaha

    Exactly!! They obviously knew they wouldn't be going why cause all the hassle!!!

    Feel sorry for my h2b his mates are dropping like flies and they've booked to go abroad so means they all have to pay more now which we just don't have either! Bloody rude!!

    I was meant to e having 2 hen nights. One was a meal and a few clubs for everyone then another more intimate one where we were going to go away.
    I found a great hotel that does a girls night in package with dinner, pampering in the room , full use of pool and some weekends they have entertainment. I would have been £55 all in each including dinner, breakfast, either pampering or music act and a disco. But everyone bar 2 friends backed off for the weekend away.

    In the end there was 19 for the meal and it was gd fun but i would have loved to have gone for a night away.

    I have discovered how many of my friend are in relatinships whose partners do not like them having much of a social life and it is in fact quiet scarey.

    Oh no :(

    I wish I'd just gone away with a couple of close mates now! :(

    H2bs had 3 mates drop out but the cheeky thing is non of them have bothered to actually tell my h2bs he's heard it from his other mates!!! One of his other mates want to take one of their places and they're cheekily trying to get him to pay them £130 for their flight even though they only paid £80!

    Has made me so mad! It's not just a night out or that's it's our stag & hen did the only one were gona get!!!

    Exactly!!!

    Ive decided to just let it go im not going to chase people up now or stress myself out over trying to find people to fill places im going to concentrate on having a FAB time.

    Ive re-arranged a few things on the night so that its still fab but comes in at a cheaper price :)

    Haha stacey thats ok! The plan is to have a party coach take us onto plymouth and then going oceana where i had booked a VIP room then party coach home. Everyone was sticking in £40 and theyre getting all booze on coach there & soft dinnks on way home and free entry and 3 x free drinks in the club.
    Was doing goodie bags but had to cut them out and topless waiter but cutting them out. But my sister & some of my friends have said about just asking guys they know if theyd be a topless waiter for it haha. saves some cash i guess!!

    So i have 23 ladies coming and i said thats it im not bothering to run around after anyone now.

    Anyway i saw a advert looking for people having their hen weekends this april/may to be filmed for a new tv series.
    I thought id apply and have had 1 phone call with one of the ladies from the company and then they rang my sister and had about a 30 mins convo with her and said we'd find out hopefully beginning of next week if we have been chosen...

    So obviously before i entered i messaged everyone to make sure its ok with them as they cant film us if someone doesnt want to (tbh its tough if they dont want to now, my hen night my rules lol)

    So now it "may" be on tv people have a whole new attitude! Those who had "NO" money and were too "Skint" can suddenly come again if its gona be on tv!

    Although it would be good to have a few more come due to money but i feel slightly miffed that they only want to get on tv and obv couldnt give a sh*t before and all the stress they caused me!

    Why are people so bloomin rude!

    OH and i try to let them know the important stuff like the party coach company not waiting past 1.30am (they said they will be going with or without people) so i message everyone and post on group and i get sarcy comments about how theyre sure everyone gets the message now as i have posted enough times...

    Literally want to SLAP someone!

    Yeh but it be nice for everyone to say they've seen the message in the first place rather than send that kind of sarcy message bk ... I also don't think they are real friends if they only want to come because it's going to be on TV so even tho the extra money off them sounds good, I don't think you should let them come... It's their own fault for being complete divs lol sorry x
