I already sent a text
perhaps if I hear nothing by later this afternoon I will just go round there with a bottle of booze and demand fun

That's a plan.
Booze can get you in almost anywhere.

i hoped they'd call me sooner
it is probably going to be fancy dress of some kind so I need at least an hour or so to put something together

I think ring them and talk,
Texting is so easy to ignore.

From a land line as they probably have your name against the mobile number.

mm, that's a positive message there
'call in a way where they can't recognise who you are so they won't ignore you'

I don't think it's that bad

Sorry, I'm rather devious, and I know people do this sort of thing at work.

its ok
more likely, they're just being a bit crap, the danger is that it'll get to a point where they are like 'shall we bother?...nah' and then I have another boring evening. Hence why I shall just drop in and demand entertainment

I have to do that with my mates
or its like 6pm on Friday and its "let's go round a mates and drink and play games" again.

Mind you, my suggestions are very similar, it's just sometimes it's "oh and I haven't eaten yet so we'll all order a curry" whereas I'm in the middle of cooking MY fucking tea and if I'd known earlier a curry would have been quite nice.

ahem.

this about a million times over!
The silly one is when people who live over an hour away forget to tell me they are coming over until they are in the city itself and halfway through some crappy fishfinger based tea before suggesting going somewhere.

there are one or two serious offenders
My brother is one - we have a lot of the same friends and invariably they will let him know the plan around Saturday lunchtime and ask him to let me know and invariably he doesn't do that until 6:30. Argh.
